The best project in the competition was the one to organise an international 'Nighttime Letter Writing' event at all universities belonging to the Unite! It was proposed by the students of Wroclaw Tech and their colleagues from Finland.

Unite!4Future is a competition aimed at students from all Unite! member universities who have an idea for their dream university of the future and would like to share it in video form. The condition was that it had to be prepared by individuals or teams from different universities. The winners were announced in Grenoble during the Unite! Dialogue.

They turned out to be students from the Wroclaw Tech and their colleague Santeri Kokkonen from Finland's Aalto University. Together, they proposed organising an international 'Nighttime Letter Writing' event, which has been successfully run at our university for six years.

Letters for a cause that matters

Since 2016, we at Wrocław University of Science and Technology have been writing letters and sending them to companies and businesses asking them to support the university's scholarship fund. Last year alone, participants wrote more than 600 letters resulting in the raising of almost PLN 25,000 for scholarships for students with disabilities.

Now the organisers of the campaign have come up with the idea of extending the action to all the universities of the alliance. This is how the film 'Nighttime Letter Writing' was created by: Karina Skowronska, Eliza Spętana, Natalia Sienkiewicz, Tobiasz Pędzik and Wiktor Kępiński from Wrocław Tech and Santeri Kokkonen from Aalto University.

- Together, we have developed a new vision for our project, which will enable the dreams and passions of students with disabilities from all universities to be fulfilled,' says Karina Skowrońska, a student from the Faculty of Management. - The 'Nighttime Letter Writing' campaign, like the Unite! network itself, shows that young people can unite and create something great.

As a reward for winning the competition, the whole group will go to the Unite! Student Festival, which will take place in Lisbon in the summer.
