Student conference “Freedom to Create” returns
On Friday, 28 April, Vytautas Magnus University will host the student conference “Freedom to Create”, which was successfully launched last year. In 2022, the conference was dedicated to the centennial of the University of Lithuania, and this year it will address the international Sustainable Development Goals set by the United Nations.
“Security and empowerment of communities, sustainable consumption and sustainability, reduction of exclusion, well-being, and the fight against climate change – these are global challenges that will encourage our students to recognise the advantage of studies based on the principles of artes liberales in tackling complex problems. After all, such challenges can only be overcome through creativity, multifaceted approaches, as well as a broader view and assessment of the situation. And this is exactly what we strive for by providing students with individualised study options,” says Vilma Bijeikienė, VMU Vice-Rector for Communication.
The specific topics of the conference and the call for papers will be announced in early February.
