which will bring together students, researchers and professors from 4EU+ Alliance’s universities to discuss the issues of food sustainability and related policies, building on the student-centred, research-based educational approach developed within the 4EU+ 1CORE project (One Comprehensive Research-Intensive European University), as part of the Erasmus+ funded European Universities Initiative.
This educational and student-engagement opportunity is organised in collaboration with the Municipality of Milan, 4EU+ associated partner, in the context of the Milan Urban Food Policy Pact (MUFPP) Global Forum, which will take place in Milan in mid-October on the 10° anniversary of the pact’s signature.

If selected, you will participate in two online workshops with academics and food policy experts from municipalities, work online in international groups and meet for a two-day on-site workshop at the University of Milan. In the 4EU+ 1CORE Dissemination event, you will get the chance to present your workgroup and ideas in the presence of Municipalities' representatives involved in the MUFFP Global Forum.
Mobility grants supporting travel and accommodation expenses may be provided by the students’ home University (2-3 students per university).
📅 Key Dates:
Students will be selected by the end of August.
