2026 Connected Learning Symposium: Registration is open!

The Connected Learning Symposium is a yearly interdisciplinary event, where students and alumni present and discuss their research and ideas regarding issues of social justice. Representatives from social organizations and other local actors interested in the topic and in joining this network are also welcome.  

The symposium aims to create a space for students to share their work and foster connections with peers and other actors across disciplines and social fields. Participating is also an opportunity to contribute to a growing community of changemakers. Together, we can play a critical role in shaping (new) possibilities for social justice.

When? June 6th 2026 | 13:00 to 17:30 (with drinks and snacks)
