Overview
More than just a week! 10 days of learning and enjoyment! A student festival like no other! A unique experience where we combine educational workshops with fun activities, meeting new people, and more! The concept was created in 1994, and it started from the daring ideas of enthusiastic students who believed in unity, multiculturality and friendship.
An international student festival where the nights will turn into mornings and the friends will turn into family!
A unique experience where we combine educational workshops with meeting new people while having fun and living epic moments.
Details
The festival is dedicated to all students aged 18 to 30, who are enrolled in an university anywhere in the world. After applying, the students pass through a selection process and, if accepted, they come to Timișoara to develop themselves, get to know new people, learn something new and make the first step to changing the world, making it a better place.
Here, in Timișoara, 10 days of workshops, activities, events and sleepless nights that will never be forgotten await you.
The workshops, which are the main activities for our participants, cover a lot of interest areas, varying from problems, faced by students worldwide to popular hobbies among youth. The public events that are part of the festival are dedicated not only to the international students, but also to people from Timișoara.
These workshops, as the festival itself, have an educational purpose. Participants learn to use their knowledge, talents and learned skills to sustain themselves and help others while pushing the human race forward in areas of equality, equity and harmony.
The festival focuses on multiculturality and exchanging traditions and ideas, its participants interacting with students from all over the world.
The organising team consists entirely of students who are volunteers, who turn every ISWinT edition into an once-in-a-lifetime experience, that holds a special place in the minds and souls of the participants, organisers and everyone who directly or indirectly interacts with the ISWinT phenomenon.
Change
Step up the brilliance of our best edition of the festival, themed Change. Celebrate self-growth, embrace other cultures and stand with us in the fight for a better future.
Welcome to the dynamic celebration of transformation and innovation at ISWinT, with this year's theme being "Change". This inspiring theme invites participants to embrace growth, adaptability, and the courage to shape a better future, both individually and collectively.
This theme is symbolically tied to the changes happening all around the world, on multiple levels, that mark a new beginning for us as a society. Just as our city symbolizes a pioneer of evolution for our country, ISWinT celebrates the power of transformation to illuminate new paths and create lasting impact.
"Change" is not just about movement; it’s about progress, creativity, and cultural evolution. This year, we aim to create an environment that encourages self-discovery, collaboration, and innovative thinking, empowering participants to be active members of society. Join us in celebrating transformation at the heart of Timișoara, where diverse cultures and innovative ideas come together. Together, let’s turn the spirit of "Change" into action and shape a future full of potential and shared understanding.
