LKA Student Union and LAC Team Agree on Closer Cooperation within the ACE²-EU Alliance
On 3 March, a meeting took place at the Latvian Academy of Culture (LAC) between the LAC team participating in the European University Alliance ACE²-EU and the board of the LAC Student Union. The meeting focused on student involvement in alliance activities, improving the flow of information, and exploring future opportunities for cooperation.
During the discussion, participants highlighted that although LAC is the smallest university within the alliance, student interest in the opportunities offered by ACE²-EU is very high. Therefore, effective communication and information dissemination are essential. The LAC Student Union can play an important role in supporting this process by helping students learn more about the alliance’s programmes, mobility opportunities, events and microlearning opportunities. Participants also discussed new forms of engagement, including ACE²-EU volunteer programmes and student involvement in developing microlearning content.
Particular attention was also given to student representation at the alliance level. The Student Advisory Board functions as an international platform where students discuss issues related to studies, collaboration and student experience within the alliance. During the meeting, participants explored ways to strengthen the representation of LAC students in this structure and to encourage the sharing of experiences after participating in alliance activities. Upcoming events were also discussed, including the ACE²-EU festival “Culture Kaleidoscope”, which will take place in Romania this year. The festival will bring together students from all alliance universities for an intensive three-day programme.
Participants of the meeting agreed to continue strengthening cooperation in order to encourage even more LAC students to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the ACE²-EU alliance and actively engage in international initiatives.
