SASUF Student Network
Connecting students from all SASUF Partner Universities
Greetings from our
new SASUF Project Coordinator.
Helin Bäckman Kartal works at
Uppsala University as Project
Coordinator for SASUF.
Involving students
is essential to create change.
Thanks to our diverse university network, the support of hundreds of researchers in both countries, the SASUF Student Network (with more than 900 members) and the embassies in both countries, SASUF 2030 will constitute a formidable force for contributing to the Agenda 2030 and represent a significant new phase in the bilateral relationship between Sweden and South Africa.
SASUF 2030 is all about making it easy to engage, learn from each other, and collaborate over the country borders.
Since this project lasts until 2024, there will be several opportunities to engage each year. Research and Innovation weeks, digital workshops and presentations, physical events, satellite events, and so much more. Read more about these opportunities by clicking on the button below!
