This information is for the attention of members of U+ (Active members and Friends).
If you’re a Member of U+, you are hereby invited to our 5th General Meeting, which will be held online, February 7, from 1pm to 5:30 pm GMT!
There will be 3 distinct moments during the General Meeting - the 2nd being reserved for only Active members (see the program below):
1-2pm GMT [all members]: Looking back on 2023, we will focus on 2 projects
- The Future is Now, which has developed and tested creative methods to develop “futures literacy” among teenagers (facilitated by Chloé Luchs);
