On January 20th, the European University Alliance ACE2-EU Societal Partnerships and Cultural Engagement Centre – SPACE Centre, a new physical space created to foster collaboration and connection between universities and society, was officially opened.
The event began with a beautiful performance by the first-year students of the Contemporary Dance program at the Latvian Academy of Culture. The esteemed guests from the Ministry of Culture, the Embassy of the Republic of Lithuania to Latvia, the Embassy of the Kingdom of Spain in Riga, “ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA” at the Austrian Embassy Commercial Section in Riga, and the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany in Riga shared their congratulations and joined this pivotal moment by celebrating with us.
In her speech, Professor Swetlana Buko, Co-leader of the SPACE Centre from Carinthia University of Applied Sciences, beautifully captured the essence of the Centre, emphasizing: “The idea of the SPACE Centre is to create space for everyone. All our activities are designed with students at the core, providing them with the tools and opportunities to prepare for the future and drive positive social change.”
At the heart of our mission, the SPACE Centre stands as a place where partnerships build future literacy, inspiring collaboration and societal transformation across our alliance.
