Unweekend

What?

Do you want to contribute and discuss your ideas on how to foster scientific excellence and well-being? Come and enjoy a weekend full of team spirit, discussions, cooking, bonfires, open space and more with your peers.

The scientific excellence and well-being initiative fosters excellence, well-being and mental strength among researchers. This weekend serves as time for current and prospective contributors of the initiative to think about how the initiative could evolve. Especially, we want

To network and get new ideas and perspectives
To make use of the time such that everyone gets something out of the weekend
To brainstorm ideas for events
To reflect on the goal of the initiative and how to move it forward
To get a motivational kick and build team spirit and momentum
To onboard new people interested in contributing to the initiative
