Description
The International Student Week in Belgrade (ISWiB) is a one-week student festival which has been traditionally held every year since 2006, in the city of Belgrade, Serbia. The Festival is open for students from all universities in Europe. Every year, ISWiB gathers over 200 young people, including participants, moderators and volunteers. This year, the ISWiB will take place from 14th to 21st July 2013!
The idea of the festival is binding young people through work in several different workshops created so that every workshop covers a significant field of our society which we live in. Through workshops, close communication and cooperation, interactive lectures and various open activities, students will be able to gain new knowledge and exchange ideas. Students will also have an opportunity to establish professional contacts with eminent professors and professionals from different sectors and develop and create new projects by themselves. The Festival has been traditionally organized by association World Youth Wave.
This year’s International Student Week in Belgrade will be directed towards the creation of an international youth network through which the participants will be able to continue to cooperate. The educational program will aim to raise the level of their knowledge in various fields, and through formal and informal meetings the participants will be able to connect with other young people who are also engaged in that field. Each workshop will have a concrete product of their work during the festival, either in the form of a project, recorded film, exhibition, etc. This year they will bring together young people with ideas and help them hatch a concrete product; work together in order to hatch the network! The official language of ISWiB is English.
