Good practices as inspiration
The goal of the event is not so much to identify universal models of "good practices" but to share experiences embedded in specific contexts that can inspire reflection, adaptation and cooperation between institutions.
Symposium theme – sense of belonging, inclusion
The 2026 Symposium is thematically focused on Belonging – how institutions cultivate inclusive environments where students, employees and those cooperating with universities feel welcomed, valued, respected and able to fully participate and thrive.
UNIC for inclusion
This theme aligns closely with the shared values of the UNIC European University Alliance and its commitment to inclusive, people-centred and socially engaged universities. Exactly like UniLodz.
