What does EELISA mean to Jonathan?

Why is it worthwhile to be part of EELISA?

You get to know many interesting, international students that are super engaged in building a common European university. Another aspect I enjoy greatly is the wide range of interdisciplinary events and communities that bring together various different perspectives and skill sets.

Before volunteering for EELISA, …

I was active as a board member for Bavaria’s largest youth environmental NGO. My focus topics were enabling youth paritcipation and climate action. Both are still important to me, hence why I want to integrate these topics in my engagement as student representative.

These EELISA topics are most important to me:

Sustainability as a central value for all activities while enabling collaboration across Europe. Promoting the benefits of the European University Alliances to students and increasing student engagement with EELISA
