Thirst for knowledge - lecture #1
Chronic fatigue, research on Spitzbergen, or modern drug design tools are just some topics that will be presented to a broad audience by a consortium of European universities during the YUFE Academy.
The YUFE Academy will take place in May 2024 at YUFE member universities spread across the continent – from Madrid in the west to Joensuu in the east. It is a series of open meetings oscillating around four focus areas of the network: European identity and Europe's responsibility in a global world, citizens' well-being, digital societies, and sustainable development.
On-site lectures that will take place in Toruń will be held from 15-17 May at the University Library at 13 Gagarina Street.
On 15 May at 13:00 CET, the lecture This is me: An overview of LGBTQ+ identities, lived experiences, and inclusion will be given by Karen Bush, YUFE's leader for equality, diversity and inclusivity from the University of Essex. Shortly after, Molly Astarita – a Fulbright scholar – will lead a workshop exploring themes of equality and equity.
Registration is required for the events taking place virtually and in the hybrid format and can be done on the YUFE Virtual Campus. YUFE Academy lectures are also held at other times, and all of them are always published on the alliance's virtual campus.
The complete programme is available for downloading here and at yufe.eu/academy.
Both individuals and organised groups are welcome to participate in the event. Teachers willing to come with the students are kindly requested to contact the organisers in advance at yufe@umk.pl.
