The respected Honours Programme at VUB focused this academic year on Climate Change & Crisis. Led by VUB professor Hannah Van Hove, the programme’s second semester involved a collaboration with philosopher, author and PACT curator Alicja Gescinska.
Sixteen students from diverse faculties participated in the programme, which comprised eight sessions featuring renowned guest lecturers. During the closing ceremony, Alicja provided feedback on the final projects, and students were awarded the Honours Programme certificates.
“The most important takeaway from the programme? There is hope, and many citizens genuinely care about our world,” said one of the students. Watch the full video.
