A Fund for student engagement across the CIVICA alliance
Promoting student engagement and collaboration is one of the key missions of the CIVICA alliance, of which Bocconi is a founding member, and to further push this a call has opened for the new Student Engagement Fund (SEF), a mini-grant funding scheme aimed at supporting student-led joint initiatives within the CIVICA alliance.
The SEF initiative will fund 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.
The application deadline is November 30. For all information and how to apply - and details of an online info session for Bocconi students on October 11 - read here:
