Sustainability Across Borders is an interdisciplinary lecture series bringing together experts from partner universities to explore sustainability from different international and disciplinary perspectives.

Each session focuses on a broader challenge, such as sustainable mobility, food systems or energy supply. Students not only gain access to specialised knowledge, but also work in international teams to analyse real-world problems, exchange perspectives and develop possible solutions.

Different disciplines. Different countries. Shared challenges. 🌱

Meet another member of our Student Ambassadors Team! ✨

This time, we are introducing Maiara Daltoe, a PhD candidate in Design at Universidade Europeia - bringing not only creativity and a research-driven mindset, but also the perspective of an early-career researcher to the community.

🗨 I'm a PhD candidate in Design at Universidade Europeia, with research at the intersection of design and sustainable education, and 10 years of teaching experience in higher education. This path has given me one clear conviction: today's sustainability challenges call for an education that crosses disciplinary boundaries and places students at the centre of change.

That conviction is what brings me to ChallengeEU. As an Ambassador, I want to be the bridge between the project and my peers, mobilising them to co-create solutions with real impact.

Not every ambassador gets a “welcome back” from us - which makes this introduction a special one! 😊

Julia Wysocka studies English Philology at Uniwersytet Warmińsko-Mazurski w Olsztynie. What makes her story even more unique is that she is joining the Student Ambassadors Team for the second time. We do not have many returning ambassadors in our group, so we are especially happy that she has decided to continue her journey and once again bring her experience, energy and ideas to the team.

And how does Julia explain her involvement in the team?

🗨 I became a ChallengeEU Student Ambassador because I believe the best opportunities begin with one brave decision. I want to inspire others to grow, embrace new experiences, and see that opportunities are closer than they seem. Together, we build a community, lifelong friendships, and connections that can truly change lives. If not now, when?
