Shaping Europe Together: Opportunities for Students with Funding from CIVICA
Promoting student engagement and collaboration is one of the key missions of the CIVICA alliance, of which Bocconi is a founding member, and to push such engagement the Student Engagement Fund (SEF) was set up last year, a mini-grant funding scheme aimed at supporting student-led joint initiatives within the CIVICA alliance. And a new call for SEF projects is now open.
The SEF initiative funds a wide range of joint projects/initiatives - such as events, student competitions, conferences, workshops, hackathons, and more. Projects should promote and foster European collaboration and intercultural understanding and be aligned with the 4 thematic priorities of CIVICA - Societies in transition, Crises of Earth; Democracy in the 21st century; Europe Revisited; Data-Driven Technologies for the Social Sciences – or with other EU priorities such as sustainability, diversity and inclusion, solidarity, promoting European culture, or address global/societal challenges.
To be eligible for the SEF, projects and initiatives can be proposed by a team formed by at least two student associations from at least two CIVICA partner universities or an ad-hoc team formed by students and early-stage researchers representing a minimum of two CIVICA partner universities. Proposals of projects with participants representing more than two CIVICA partners are highly encouraged.
Bocconi students can submit proposals for pre-approval by October 27
