Service-Learning networking around the world! 

CLAYSS continues working with partners and colleagues from all regions worldwide to promote the creation or strengthening of Service-Learning networks.

  • The 6th EASLHE (European Association of Service-Learning in Higher Education) addressed the “Futures of Service-Learning: Digital Empowerment, Transformational Literacy and Civic Engagement”. Researchers and educators, mostly from European educational institutions, participated in this event held on 27th and 28th September at LUMSA University in Rome.
