Scholarship Programme of to a great start

Spirits were high and ideas were filling the air, as students and lecturers from institutions across Denmark joined the first Bevica Scholarship Programme Ideation Workshop.

The group assembled in Korsør to meet each other for the first time, and get an introduction to the Scholarship Programmes goals and core concepts.

The participants had input from experts from a range of disciplines and attended hands on workshops to get a better understanding of different tools as well as their own roles, bias, knowledge production and representation.

Thank you to all that attended, we look forward to see you again in March.
