AEGEE Summer University
AEGEE - Association des Etats Généraux des Etudiants de l'Europe ( European Students' Forum) is a student association. It promotes the idea of a unified Europe, cross-border co-operation, communication, integration among students and strives to create an open and tolerant society of tomorrow.
AEGEE is an interdisciplinary, voluntary, non-governmental, politically independent and non-profit making association. It is represented in 241 university cities, in 40 countries all around Europe.
It's main field of action covers peace and stability, higher education, active citizenship and cultural exchange.
Each year "Summer Universities" are held by most of the AEGEE local groups (called antennae) in order to promote the intercultural understanding. Students can travel to an antennae in another country, where the host students teach them their language and culture.
It is a general policy that the participating students are hosted for free by the fellow AEGEE members, making travels in Europe affordable, and most important the communication with other students possible.
The summer university contains different kinds of programmes: language Course; language Course Plus; Summer Course; Summer Course Plus; Travelling Summer University; Summer Event.
The activities of all antennae are co-ordinated by the European Board (Comité Directeur).
