[The CIVIS Newsroom ](https://civis.eu/de/the-civis-newsroom) 2. Civisness, or how to cook a CIVIS project Civisness, or how to cook a CIVIS project =========================================== Communication and Dissemination 4\. Dezember 2024 To 'cook" a CIVIS project, we need outstanding chefs and the best ingredients. See how academics, researchers and staff members from CIVIS universities spice things up to create challenge-based programmes, sustainble mobility, civic engagement and more. Welcome to the CIVIS kitchen! Explaining a European University Alliance ----------------------------------------- Part of the ground breaking [European Universities initiative](https://education.ec.europa.eu/education-levels/higher-education/european-universities-initiative), alliances like CIVIS have been changing the landscape of higher education in Europe and beyond since 2019. Grasping such a complex structure, and communicating it to internal stakeholders to increase the sense of beloging and the understanding of what it means to be part of a European University Alliance can be a challenge. This is why, for [CIVIS Days 2024](https://civis.eu/de/connect/civis-days/civis-days-2024-public-events), in Salzburg, the CIVIS Communication Unit recruited actors from the ground, those making CIVIS happen, to explain the secret ingredients that make our alliance a true, inspirational, change maker. Around a kitchen table, academics, reasearchers and administrators from CIVIS 'cooked up' some civisness and, through the methaphor of the 'cooking show', not only explained the key elements and values of our alliance, but also showed the human experience, the friendships and complicity that grows by working together. In this first campaign, Nadia Fernandez de Pinedo (UAM), Alexandru Cartis (UB), Fanny Sbaraglia (ULB), Simone Guccione (UNIL), Carlo Della Rocca (SUR) and Ria Dunkley (UofG) performed as themselves and opened a window into the *'cuisine interne'* of our alliance A student film crew, a community project ---------------------------------------- In true CIVIS style, the Communication Unit recruited a student film crew at the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg, where our annual CIVIS Days gathering took place. The student crew coordination was assured by Associate Prof. Alois Pluschkowitz (PLUS), cameras were handled by Tara Dirala, Leandra K. Sprenger and René Mehren while sound was managed by Katharina Kaser, Florian Mühlbacher and Verena Karl. The concept, interviews and general production were managed by CIVIS Communication Unit and Pop Productions. The 'CIVIS kitchen' would have not been possible without the help of Kerstin Fuchsberger, Petra Höpfner Petra and Eva Elise Lechelle from PLUS. --- *Photos: CIVIS Communication Unit* - [ ![Click to enlarge](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-kitchen1-618x_.jpeg?token=67ffc503c08efb8265543014db018a71) ](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-kitchen1-1600x1600-resize.jpeg?token=dc72e3bb017701e329e2bf63202b963b) - [ ![Click to enlarge](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-kitchen2-618x_.jpeg?token=50b65b94ab7b3030ab872e51ff92d89e) ](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-kitchen2-1600x1600-resize.jpeg?token=d33ab6850ea87e083ed906a09db8958f) - [ ![Click to enlarge](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-kitchen-3-618x_.jpeg?token=d9c2264a1d072e579c9d9553f5dca299) ](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-kitchen-3-1600x1600-resize.jpeg?token=c518a8be12ffc104375b35f82aa86dd8) - [ ![Click to enlarge](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-kitchen4-618x_.jpeg?token=0b45fd4e4be31a8ed9f9dc2a9be12a32) ](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-kitchen4-1600x1600-resize.jpeg?token=e755c01ed68984d009137e6097e637ca) - [ ![Click to enlarge](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civiskitchen-5-618x_.jpeg?token=7d4b0898c1c990dff6b9e1e9df3e4773) ](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civiskitchen-5-1600x1600-resize.jpeg?token=504c1d5bdb27fb8682101c3aa3d37c56) Related news ------------ - [ ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/we-are-civizens-instagram-post-800x600.jpg?token=a7b19e7bce76c56389bfd47fa4e2bed2)What does it mean to be a civizen?
