The Summer University (SU) project has been at the heart of AEGEE since 1988, born out of a commitment to promoting European integration. Today its purpose remains the same: giving young people the chance to experience the diversity of European cultures and develop a deeper understanding of what it means to live in a multicultural society.
Organised by AEGEE Locals across Europe, Summer Universities last from six days to four weeks and combine thematic workshops, non-formal education, and social activities. Each edition focuses on one or two topics – such as local culture, sustainability, social inclusion, arts and creativity, or civic education – explored through games, workshops, and activities led by local teams or invited trainers.
