🌍✨ Happy Human Rights Day, BIDS students! 🌈✊

Today, we celebrate the principles that bind us together as global citizens - Human Rights! 🤝🕊️ On this special occasion, let's reflect on the inherent dignity and equal rights of all members of the human family.

Human Rights Day reminds us that every person, regardless of race, gender, religion, or background, deserves to live with freedom, justice, and respect. As BIDS students, we play a crucial role in promoting awareness, understanding, and action to uphold these fundamental rights.

Let's use our knowledge and passion to contribute to a world where everyone's rights are valued and protected. 💡💪 Join the conversation, share your thoughts, and let's inspire positive change together! 🌟🌐

But what is Human Rights to you? 🤔 Share your perspective in the comments below and let's explore the diverse meanings within our BIDS community! 👇✨

Hey BIDS students!!
Are you unsure of what you could do after graduating from BIDS whether that is in a couple years or right around the corner? If this sounds like you, then I suggest not missing out on the second alumni talk of the semester with Linnéa Roman on Thursday (16.11) over zoom!!

Alumni: Linnéa Roman

Date: November 16

Time: 17.15-18.00

A bit more about the alumni:
Linnéa Román graduated from Lund University amid the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. After her bachelor's degree, Linnéa proceeded to her master's degree in religion in Peace and Conflict at Uppsala University, which led to her engagement with people with albinism worldwide, but Tanzania in particular. As a result, Linnéa founded an organization to raise albinism awareness in Sweden and support a Tanzanian NGO in May 2023. She is currently working with Oxfam Sweden as their Digital Fundraising Lead.

Hey fellow BIDS students!! Here bellow we share with you an opportunity to participate in a summer program in Ghana!

Ernest Badu, a Communications Officer with the Ghana Health and Education Initiative – GHEI, has reached out to us with the exciting opportunity for students to be a part of the Summer Serve and Learn (SSL) Program offered by GHEI in 2024.

Students have the opportunity to work alongside local staff members and contribute to GHEI's year-round health and education programs. This program offers two distinct sessions: a Community Health Evaluation session and a Girls Empowerment Camp

During the Community Health Evaluation session, participants will be involved in a thorough and in-depth evaluation of children’s health in the community, which will provide updated control data to help us improve our health programs, and help us understand how covid and the subsequent financial crisis has affected children’s growth and vulnerability to infections, among other factors. Volunteers will help weigh and measure young children, and ensure quality data collection and complete data entry.

The Girls Empowerment Camp session offers participants the chance to design an engaging curriculum and conduct an exhaustive empowerment camp. Essential themes such as sexual and reproductive health, money management, and leadership will be covered, aiming to empower and inspire young girls.

Here are the details of the upcoming sessions:

1.Community Health Evaluation (Session 1): June 22 - July 6, 2024
2.Community Health Evaluation (Session 2): July 12 - July 26, 2024
3.Girls Empowerment Camp: August 1 - August 15, 2024"

Looking for something to add to your CV and promote sustainability in Lund?👀 Well, we have a listing here from The Circle Centre in Lund that is worth looking at:

Are you passionate about sustainability? Do you value sharing and reusing? Do you want to join the fight against overconsumption? And most importantly: are you looking for ways to engage with the local community and HAVE FUN together?

Then this may be a great opportunity for you! Circle Centre is a local community-driven organisation in Lund, which seeks to fight overconsumption and promote sharing. We run a ‘Library of Things’ where people can borrow items instead of buying them new, and we also host various events and workshops related to non-consumption. As one of Circle Centre’s officers you will not only directly influence the future of the organisation, but also have a chance to get new experience in the field that is interesting for you. You can choose if you want to focus on working with our Library of Things, engage in organizing events or maybe build new partnerships. This is also a great opportunity for meeting new people and building new friendships! We promise you that we always have a lot of fun!

1-4 amanuenses 03/10/2023

Looking for a job? Want to have a great addition to your CV and make a bit of extra money? Being an amanuensis at the Department of Human Geography is an exciting opportunity for everyone interested in the faculty and that would like to gain experience in administrative work.
Julian Stöllinger, a third-year BIDS student who was an amanuensis earlier this year, has the following insight on the job:
During my time there, I had the opportunity to work together in a team with several staff members as well as other students, and could get a deeper insight into the department itself. The workload is around 20%, which means that you will spend around 8 hours per week working either from home, or directly at the office. Within my position, I was able to arrange my working hours flexibly, which made studying and working at the same time very easy, especially during exam season. I would really recommend taking this chance as working with the University will not only contribute to your personal development but further to your CV! Don't hesitate to contact me, I'd be happy to help!
The deadline is October 10th! Here is the link if you would like to check it out or apply:
