How does Service-Learning fit in your studies?
Are you socially involved or interested in social issues? Service-Learning is an educational format that can enable you to contribute to civil society during your studies. As part of a course, you will acquire theoretical content (Learning) and apply it in practice in a non-profit context (Service). This gives you the chance to gain specialized and transversal competencies, as well as to reflect on the academic knowledge you gain. You will also have the opportunity to actively address a social issue, which will be acknowledged as the first unit of your Civic Engagement Certificate.
Service-Learning with an international dimension
As part of the CIVIS project you can network with students from other participating European universities. This can give you different perspectives on your subject and you can learn about alternative approaches to a shared European challenge. The five major challenges are (1) Health, (2) Cities, Territories and Mobilities, (3) Digital and Technological Transformation, (4) Climate, Environment and Energy, (5) Society, Culture, Heritage.
