Education
Students & Society Fair - 8 October 2026
Dear colleagues,
- Do you coordinate or supervise projects or work placements with a social component?
- Are you looking to engage with societal organisations – for example, by inviting a guest speaker – as part of your teaching?
- Or are you seeking links with the social sector as part of a research project?
If so, you might be interested in visiting the ‘Students & Society’ fair on Thursday 8 October (2.00 pm–5.00 pm) in the central hall of the Agora building. This fair marks the start of a long-term exchange between education, research and societal organisations, in line with our ambitions regarding our profile themes.
In this first edition, we are building on the familiar concept of the volunteering fair. Students will meet organisations where they can do voluntary work, possibly undertake work placements, and explore the social sector. Interested lecturers and researchers will also have the opportunity to get to know the social organisations present.
