Present
Global Discussions on Social Movements
We all study at universities with the ultimate goal of innovation and progress. We all aspire for a better world but how can we actually achieve social change? What drives social movements? Where do we find the motivation to push through all the obstacles in order to pursue social change? How is a social movement possible logistically speaking? How do we find the focus when there’s so much inequality in all aspects of our societies? What are the changes and the small or big steps taken in other parts of the world that we can take in our communities and our own work at the local level?
This set of semi-academic discussions aims to touch on the intersection of social change with social categories such as sustainability, gender, race, class, etc. There will be a guest speaker invited from one of the CEA universities with practical knowledge and experience of working in social entrepreneurship, NGOs, and social movements and a time allocated for open discussions and networking.

Language Cafes
Today there are many online services where you can learn languages, many of those are not free, and those which are, are limited. Practicing by speaking to your fellow students might be a nice upgrade if you already have some knowledge. Or you can just start learning by listening to some key phrases and practicing them. Learning from a native speaker will not only get you proficiency, but also knowledge about a culture.
We are searching for a working group, to set up this project. We have ideas and plans, but we are missing a nice working group and we are hoping to get you interested.

Book Club
We are all familiar with the notion of the book club and while we are keeping our distance and staying safe and at home, why not as well read together. Since we are from different countries it would be also nice to get to know each other’s cultures. Thus, we would like to read different pieces from different countries and get to know the most achieved writers from all over the world. Or any other book that you are passionate about or willing to talk about. It is all up to us.
We are just waiting for you to sign up and we can start.
