📣 Call for Students: Join the EuroConnect Students’ Debates!

Are you a BA or MA student at the University of Siena interested in discussing European issues with peers from across Europe?

The EuroConnect Students’ Debates are a series of online discussions bringing together students from different European universities.

The debates are held in English, last around 90 minutes, and are designed as interactive exchanges rather than lectures.

Participants will have the opportunity to engage with topics such as:
• European issues
• Local challenges and their wider European connections
• The role of university curricula in supporting civic competences and democratic engagement

These debates are a chance to meet other students, exchange ideas and experiences, and reflect together on issues that matter both in everyday life and in the broader European context.

ECTS will be awarded to participating students.

If you would like to take part, you can register by scanning the QR code in the attached flyer or at the link in bio. The flyer also includes the main information you need about the debates and how to participate.

We warmly encourage all interested students to join!

✨ We are excited to announce that our report “Cultural Diplomacy in Action – The Role of Non-Governmental Actors in Italian Intercultural Relations” has been officially published on the website of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Intercultural Cooperation (MAECI).

The collaborative work, carried out by Valentina Pettosini, Filippo Simonelli and Daniela Fazio Vargas, under the scientific supervision of Prof. Pierangelo Isernia, explores how non-governmental actors shape Italy’s intercultural diplomacy.

Developed within the Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence CREDO – Cultural Relations and Diplomacy, this project was made possible thanks to the contribution of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.

The views expressed in this report are solely those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
