Group discussion and the opportunity to explore and try things out is important. Additionally, community outreach this semester will focus a lot on associations and community building opportunities.

Syllabus
  • How to maintain kind communities, care for others, encourage action, face challenges and overcome them with ease? This year it will be very much about people, communities and possibilities. What could and should we do at KISK? The course is based on sharing, imagining, connecting and trying in practice. In addition, we will have a composite weekend in Brno (8-10 November) together with a group of students from our KISK CŽV course. We believe that the course can bring the unexpected to us and to you!
