THE FINAL WORD 💬

Although we are still impacted by the Covid crisis, our approach to events this year, has continued to attract many graduates and students this year. Our network adapted and evolved in the face of this very unusual context, in particular by offering many of its workshops online.

Our continuously evolving services are yours! Truly, the dynamism of the network and its strength is due to you by your:

• being involved in the organisation of events, in juries, as mentors, etc. ;
• participating in the meetings and services we offer;
• sharing your suggestions for its continued development.

We hope to count on more of you to be at our side this upcoming school year, even if the Covid policies continue to affect our in-person events. We wish you a wonderful summer and look forward to seeing you in the fall. Again, congratulations and thank you all!
