In this episode of The Socialpod, we tour the four hosts of International University Week 2026 (20–24 April): HUMAK University of Applied Sciences in Helsinki, Hanze University of Applied Sciences in Groningen, PXL University College in Hasselt, and Ernst-Abbe University of Applied Sciences Jena. You’ll hear concrete previews of workshops and field visits, plus practical tips for getting around (from trains to Amsterdam/Groningen to navigating Helsinki’s public transport—and yes, it may be cold in April). The hosts present their themes: HUMAK’s “Perspectives and Tools for Community Work and Promoting Agency,” Hanze’s “Community as Care: Activating Social Networks and Volunteering in Social Work,” PXL’s “Making Change Work,” and Jena’s “Democracy and Human Rights.” Together they sketch how students and staff will connect local practice with human rights, participation, and community-based innovation across four European cities in the same week.
