The University of Barcelona hosted an information session on Thursday, March 14, 2024, to introduce students to the innovative CHARM-EU alliance and its Master's degree in Global Challenges for Sustainability. This event, aimed at both UB students and exchange participants, featured presentations by university officials, student council representatives, and current students of the master. Attendees learned about the benefits of the programme, including its focus on real-world sustainability challenges, international mobility opportunities, and a unique transdisciplinary learning environment.
Marta Ferrer, the vice-rector for Students and University Life, welcomed attendees and introduced the student speakers. Jan Butí, president of the CHARM-EU Student Council, then provided an overview of European universities alliances, with a particular focus on CHARM-EU. Following this, Sergio Villanueva, the rector's delegate for CHARM-EU at the UB, delved into the specifics of the master's programme.
The highlight of the event came from current and former students of this master's degree: Krista Trendafilova (Bulgaria), who graduated from the programme's second edition in January 2024, and current students Alisia Gahabka (Germany) and Kristiana Qerosi (Italy), who shared their unique experiences and insights from the programme. "Suddenly, you're not just in a classroom," said Krista Trendafilova. "Students, professors, even the project stakeholders – everyone speaks different languages, and they can be from entirely different countries, even continents. It's a real immersion into a truly global environment."
