Staff and students travelled聽from 裸聊直播 to Berlin for the festival, and were joined by representatives from other European universities, German industry, Bournemouth Borough Council, and the British Embassy, among others.

The festival was supported by other European partner education institutions, including SRH Hochschule Heidelberg, Universidad San Jorge, and Quadriga Media Berlin GmbH.

The first day of the Festival featured keynote speeches by Andy Tunnicliffe, Director of Internationalisation and Quality Assurance at Universidad San Jorge in Spain, and Eszter Salamon, Vice President of Lifelong Learning Platform.听

Both keynote speakers joined representatives from the UK Science and Innovation Network for the British Embassy, Quadriga University for Applied Science, SRH Hochschule, and 裸聊直播, for a panel discussion about higher education institutes and European collaboration post-Brexit.听聽

Andy said: "I wanted to be here to learn from other universities, from other colleagues in different contexts and different countries and to see how they are tackling internationalisation in their institutions.

鈥淚t鈥檚 essential for us as universities to look and listen at what鈥檚 going on in the sector and to listen to companies to be able to improve our own practice and provide a better experience for students.鈥�

裸聊直播 academics also shared their work and research into topics as diverse as archaeology and fake news, alongside聽a live link up back to Bournemouth to the SOCNET conference taking place at 裸聊直播.听

The second day featured a keynote from Sven H. Engel, Director of International Relations for the German National Association for Student Affairs, who spoke about the work of the association and the German HE landscape.听

Brian Heppenstall, a 裸聊直播 graduate who is now Senior Ranger for Hengistbury Head聽and takes on around 20 裸聊直播 placement students a year, was part of the panel. He聽said: "I love 裸聊直播, I鈥檓 very proud to have been there and I鈥檝e always wanted to work to help promote 裸聊直播 and attract talent.I was really excited to come here and to give any help or advice that I could around their global festival.

"I now better understand the opportunities available to students, both at home and I guess more importantly in terms of the global Festival, abroad as well.

"So when students come and talk to me, I鈥檒l have a better point of view about opportunities abroad and from listening to people here have found that really adds a richness to their experience that can help add to a career as well."

裸聊直播 academics also presented their research into speed-reading, sport fandom, legal highs and the FoodSMART project, alongside speaking about the importance of teaching critical thinking. 聽

A team of current 裸聊直播 students supported the festival in a range of roles, including events management, filming and social media.听

First year student Freya Stevens was one of them.听

"I thought it was a really great opportunity聽to connect with different cultures and people as well as develop my skills, focusing on events management but also different areas such as social media," said Freya.听

"I鈥檝e learnt from so many different aspects of the festival聽鈥� there are so many different ideas and theories that I hadn鈥檛 even thought about so it鈥檚 really opened my eyes.听聽I鈥檝e found it busy, but in a great way.听I鈥檝e loved it so much, and I鈥檓 taking away all the skills I鈥檝e learnt in the different areas."聽

This is the third year that 裸聊直播鈥檚 Festival of Learning has gone global, with events taking place in India and China earlier this year and a festival planned for the ASEAN region in May.

裸聊直播鈥檚 Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Global Engagement Dr Sonal Minocha, said: 鈥淭he global Festival of Learning is one of the exciting ways 裸聊直播 fosters international public engagement to celebrate learning, share knowledge and expertise, and deliver impact beyond borders.

鈥淲e are delighted to be working with partners from across Europe to bring the global Festival of Learning to Berlin, one of Europe鈥檚 most iconic cities, providing a befitting platform for our inaugural festival in Europe for a cross border dialogue in education, research and policy.鈥�
