On the 13-14 of June, 2015, volunteers from 15 Lithuanian Higher Education Institutions and guests from Poland, Czech Republic, Estonia, Turkey and Greece came to Klaipėda to participate in the 24th National Platform of Erasmus Student Network Lithuania. During the event students were discussing about organization’s current issues, shared their experience and, most important, elected the national board and coordinators for the upcoming academic year.
ESN of Kaunas University of Technology (ESN KTU) were also participating in the platform and had the biggest delegation comparing to other sections – 15 people in total (delegates, candidates, auditors).
Our students were active in discussions, made some presentations. The peak of the first evening was annual “Go Public” awards and ESN KTU won in two categories out of eight: Best Promo Campaign (for the new mentors and members recruitment 2015 spring) and, the most desired one, Section of the Year.
And that even wasn’t the best part of the whole event. Four ESN KTU members will lead not only our section but whole ESN Lithuania: Lina Januškevičiūtė (Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture’s student) as a Vise president for Projects and Events, Povilas Kraulėda (Faculty of Informatics) as a Web Projects Administator, Kernius Ribikauskas (Faculty of Informatics) as a photographer and Kanishak Gupta (Faculty of Electrical and Electronics Engineering) as an ESN Sea Battle coordinator.
Bigger and bigger achievements, honor to be the best section, individual wins of ESN KTU members encourage us to go further, to participate in new projects, and to go beyond university showing what we are capable of, however, never forgetting the main goal of the organization – taking care of Erasmus and international students in Lithuania.
