From May 9 to 13, 2nd-year students in the Degree Program in Global Digital Humanities (HDG) went to Brussels. On this work and study trip, the students participated in numerous workshops, visits and meetings. For example, they visited the European Parliament, where they met with MEPs Izaskun Bilbao from the PNV, and Pernando Barrena from EH Bildu. In addition, they attended lectures by Ulla Engelmann (European Commission) and Santiago Mondragón (Committee of the Regions).

In addition to becoming familiar with the European Parliament, the students took advantage of the trip to get to know several institutions first-hand. Thus, they met with representatives of the Becentral digital campus, an organization that brings together more than 60 entrepreneurs and whose objective is to promote start-ups and influence society, among other things. The students also visited Coopcity, an association that promotes social and cooperative entrepreneurship, and met with representatives of BeCircular, a group that encourages the transition toward a sustainable circular economy.
