Why?
Experiencing different places and contexts is one of the most rewarding aspects of being part of a network like EUSEA. Conferences and gatherings are great for this, but how many of us might benefit even further from a more immersive time spent in one another’s settings?
What?
The EUSEA Carousel is a new initiative to encourage authentic exchange between members through placements that happen over an extended time – at least one week. If possible, the exchange should happen on-site, or just digitally. This creates space for new understandings, to join different conversations, meet new people and ultimately contribute and return new perspectives to your own setting.
How?
At this stage, we are not asking for lengthy profiles or form-filling. We just want to assess enthusiasm for the idea across our members. We would especially like to know:
Could you host a placement?
Or are you interested in visiting another EUSEA member?
To express your interest, please email annette.klinkert@eusea.info, giving as much or as little detail as you wish.
We look forward to having you onboard the EUSEA Carousel!
“Some years ago I visited ‘Wissenschaft im Dialog’ in Berlin during one week. I was allowed to participated at a strategy workshop and several meetings and I had discussions with their project leaders and the director. This experience was extremely important for me – it was a great inspiration, I saw that other organizations in the field have similar questions and it also gave me confidence that we were on the right track with our own organization.”
Philipp Burkard, Director Science et Cité / Switzerland
