Volunteering as a Path to Social Justice

Brief description: Make Impact. Meet People. Do Something Real.

 

This BIP is an interdisciplinary, practice-oriented programme focused on the design and implementation of community-based volunteer interventions as tools of social innovation. It brings together students from diverse academic backgrounds, including social sciences, business, law, technical and natural sciences, reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of volunteering and social innovation. The core objective of the programme is to strengthen students’ ability to apply principles of service learning, volunteering, and social innovation in real-life community contexts. Through international teamwork, students engage with local community needs and collaboratively design, implement, and evaluate mall-scale micro-interventions aimed at addressing societal challenges related to social justice.

The programme consists of three interconnected phases.
