Closing of the UAB BIP-International Staff Week 2024
The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona thanks and says goodbye in Casa Convalescència to the participants of the first BIP-UAB International Staff Week.
During the week of 11 November, 28 participants from 14 countries (EU and non-EU) shared this programme of face-to-face workshops conducted by the International Relations Area in a one-of-a-kind chance to experience the UAB and dive deep into the multitude of cultures in Barcelona.
The programme contained workshops, networking activities, and opportunities for sharing best practices among colleagues from a wide range of countries, including partners in International Credit Mobility.
The participants of the international programme got the chance to discuss Erasmus+, internationalisation strategies, international relations management, International Credit Mobility and learn more about online services for students and staff.
The participants discussed the ECIU university mission: to be an agile, open agora at the European level for solving multi-disciplinary societal challenges, doing research, and learning for life. Furthermore, they shared best practices and innovative solutions related to organisational or technical issues and strategic topics such as open science, digital services, special collections and local knowledge, digital literacy training or co-creation models.
The group was also able to experience our culture, with activities in emblematic places of the city and close to the campus. The week ended at Casa Convalescència, where the UAB thanked and said goodbye to all participants in an institutional event.
