In service-learning, higher education institutions and social organizations work together to create a positive impact. How do you start such a collaboration? Which organizations can you partner with? And how do you divide the roles?

Collaboration with social partners is central to this networking event of the Flemish Network for Service-Learning in Higher Education in 2026.

Meaningful collaborations: building bridges between higher education & society

Prof. James Kennedy (Utrecht University) will give a keynote on the four types of communities you can collaborate with in service-learning.

In addition, there will be presentations, pitches, interactive sessions and workshops in which professionals will present their projects, practices and research. Proposals can be submitted until 1 December 2025.
