The AKAS aims to promote the integration of foreign students at the university and the exchange between foreign and German students. One focus of its work is cultural support for international students. It organises various events, such as the Festival of Cultures, excursions and much more. Foreign students can make an active contribution by presenting their home countries, their culture or the history of their country, for example.
He meets regularly to plan the next activities but also to discuss problems faced by foreign students at university and in everyday life. He also tries to mediate in conflict situations.
Festival of cultures
The Festival of Cultures takes place annually in November and is the largest intercultural event in Freiberg. The festival brings together residents of the district of Central Saxony, many of whom come from different cultural backgrounds.
In addition to food from all over the world, there is a stage programme lasting several hours in which singers, dancers and actors show off their skills.
Every year, many international students and doctoral students take part in the festival, whether as cooks, bakers or artists on stage.
The festival is organised by the "One World and Integration" working group of the Freiberger Agenda 21 association and is run by many volunteers.
Meeting room
The meeting room is a meeting place for foreign and German students, which was provided and set up by the Studentenwerk. The AKAS manages the meeting room and organises numerous events there, such as the International Corner every Thursday. It also uses the room for its meetings, where it plans activities.
The room can also be used by other groups and working groups for public events, which serve to get to know each other, plan events, etc. The room can also be used for events organised by students. The room can also be used for student events for a fee.
If you are planning an event in the meeting room, please contact us by email in good time, at least two weeks before the start of the event: akausland [at] stura [dot] tu-freiberg [dot] de (akausland[at]stura[dot]tu-freiberg[dot]de).
