How can creative and impactful communication encourage young people to engage in the fight against racism?
This is the challenge addressed by the international student project “Creating Support Against Racism”, organized in partnership with the Stiftung gegen Rassismus, the organization behind the International Weeks Against Racism in Germany.
A collaborative and international project
Open to students from the FORTHEM Alliance, of which UBE is a member, this program invites you to work alongside international students from diverse academic backgrounds. Together, you will develop a communication campaign aimed at raising awareness and mobilizing young people in the fight against racism.
A practical and career-oriented experience
This project will allow you to develop key skills:
- communication campaign design
- content creation for (social) media
- storytelling and communication strategy
- introduction to fundraising
- project management in the non-profit sector
By working on a current societal issue, you will gain valuable practical experience while strengthening your intercultural skills and improving your English proficiency.
A flexible and enriching format
The project will run from June to September 2026 and will combine:
- collaborative online working sessions
- one week of in-person project work in Mainz (Germany), scheduled for September
Who can apply?
The program is open to all UBE students, regardless of their field of study or level.
