On March 19–20, the third edition of the ECIU User Focus Groups will take place at the University of Stavanger (Norway). Applications are open until January 20, and final-year students with prior ECIU experience are especially encouraged to apply.

The ECIU University Creathon 2026 will bring together students from across the ECIU Alliance to co-create inclusive solutions at the intersection of care, community and mobility. Taking place in Barcelona in May 2026, this intensive challenge invites participants to work with real stakeholders on pressing urban and rural challenges in Catalonia.

ECIU was awarded the 'Co-Create to Educate: International Collaboration Award' for the development of the Engage platform during the Joint and Double Programmes in Europe conference, held in late 2025 in Lodz.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2026! The ECIU office will be closed for holidays.
