Community Service Learning

Short description

Students gain curricular credits by performing service (volunteering) that answers to the needs of the community (social partners who work with vulnerable people). In addition to their volunteering, students support the organisation in answering a need/question on the basis of academic input. This results in a product that is useful and relevant for the organisation and its audience. In addition, students reflect on their accomplishments, strengths, challenges and social role.
