Sixth Service Learning Conference
Description:
On Monday 26 May the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the UAB will host the 6th UAB Service Learning Conference organised by the Service Learning Office, which is managed by the Fundació Autònoma Solidària (FAS).
Programme of the day:
First, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. there will be an inspiring session entitled “International models of university service learning”, in which Nieves Tapia (Argentina), Julia Raberger (Austria) and Marta Vallvé (the Netherlands) will speak. During this session the awards for the best TFG with ApS of the past year will be presented and we will have the opportunity to listen to the speeches of the winning students.
From 11:15 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. there will be a participatory activity in Speed Dating format, with the aim of broadening views when connecting university lecturers and 3rd sector entities/public entities. The activity will not include a thematic grouping, but the objective will be more aimed at thinking about possible collaborations with those lecturers who at first seem not to be as clearly linked to service learning, in order to promote creativity, interdisciplinarity and open-mindedness.
Finally, from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. there will be an Entities Fair, with snacks included, with stands outside and open to everyone. The activity will include snacks, which can be accessed by means of a ticket obtained by visiting the stands of the fair. This method aims to encourage the interaction of lecturers with the entities at the stands.
