The ChallengeEU Alliance is more than a partnership between universities. It is an opportunity to grow, develop and drive positive change together. Our guiding idea of bringing together diverse strengths is expressed in the motto “In Unity” – the central theme of the first ChallengeEU Student Poster Competition. We invite students from ChallengeEU Alliance universities to present their artistic vision of what “In Unity” means to them. The competition encourages participants to explore, through the language of art, the ideas that lie at the heart of the ChallengeEU academic community: unity in diversity, cooperation across borders, and the shared values that connect people, institutions, cultures and regions across Europe. Submitted posters should offer a creative reflection on what it means to build bridges between different perspectives, backgrounds and experiences – and on how academic communities can work together to shape a more open, inclusive and collaborative future. All entries will be reviewed by an international jury. Selected works will be presented in a dedicated exhibition and published on the official ChallengeEU Alliance website, giving participants the opportunity to share their artistic vision with the wider European academic community. Main rules The deadline for submitting entries is 20 September 2026. >>> In Unity – ChallengeEU Student Poster Competition: Submission form Please note: The original design should be retained by the participant until the competition has been concluded. By entering the competition, each participant declares that, if their entry is selected as one of the winning works, they will provide the organiser with a complete set of materials enabling further professional editing of the design, its preparation for print, and its digital publication. The exhibition of works will be organised during Art & Science Day at the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, held with the support of funding from NAWA, the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange.
