EUCU.NET organized the 2nd International Conference on Children’s Universities - the Twin City Conference in Bratislava and Vienna on the 6th - 9th December 2009. For all who missed the opportunity to share your experiences and learn of other projects some impressions within the NEW video to the conference.
The documentation (papers, posters, pictures and presentation of workshops) is free for download on our website.
This time EU-Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič joined us at the conference in Bratislava and underlined the importance of Children's Universities initiatives for the European future.
During the EUCU.NET survey of Children's University projects we collected a lot of data thanks to the partners of our network. Patricia Götz of the University of Tübingen did a wonderful work and compiled the information and created a lot of nice charts to visualize it. Now we are going to raise questions and discuss the results of the review at the EUCU.NET community weblog.
The published data originates from the questions of the first surveying phase. For convenience reasons we decided to split our questionnaire into two parts. The first part dealt with some basic information and issues of activities/offers, participants & target groups, lecturers, administration & co-operation and concept & documentation. The second part consists of additional questions about planning/organisation & implementation, participation, more info about participants, gender aspects and again lecturers. Those who already filled in the first part questions (project data 1) can find the second part (project data 2) in their project pages. Please log in and complete your description and do not forget to translate to English.

children's university in Croatia
Blazena Radas wrote on 03.05.2010
Dear all,
for years I have been an admirerer of the "Kinder-Uni". Now I live in Croatia, Split and am in the process of founding the first children's university in Croatia. I would be more than grateful if anyone could give me advice or information.
Are there any programmes, mentorships running for this year? And if so, where and how can I get information?
Any help is very much appreciated.
Kind regards
Blazena Radas

as you can see our comment section is not that frequented as one would wish.
But I would like to make you an offer: if you have specific questions I will give you a beta test account to the EUCU.NET forum. There you will get the answers you are looking for and you would help us to call up the forum.
Please contact me directly at mentoring[at]eucu.net
All the best
Cyril
