International Service Learning
EUniWell Service Learning is a 10-week international student project, providing participants with a structured, yet experiential learning opportunity to collaborate with others and make a difference. Delivered in partnership with community organisations, participants will attend virtual classes and guest lectures taught by industry and academic experts, collaborate as part of an international team, and present their final projects at an in-person event.

About the Climate Cooperation Initiative:
A group of young and committed activists based in Cologne who are united by a desire to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, limit the rate of climate change, and to promote climate justice.
