What is CIVIS Days

The CIVIS Days are CIVIS’ main annual event, gathering students, university staff, civil society, innovators, policymakers and local representatives from across Europe.
We come together to connect and cooperate to build the future of our Alliance, to share what we have learned and developed, and to find innovative solutions to societal challenges.
Each year a different CIVIS member university takes up the challenge of hosting, using the event as an opportunity to showcase CIVIS to their own community while positioning themselves at the heart of our Alliance.
