FUCE Summer School 2025 – “European Humanism in the Making”

From June 30 to July 4, 2025, the Université Catholique de Lille welcomed 25 students from across Europe, Lebanon, and Ukraine for the 6th edition of the Summer School “European Humanism in the Making”, organized by the Federation of European Catholic Universities (FUCE) and coordinated by the University Centre Saint-Ignatius Antwerp (UCSIA).

Each year, the FUCE Summer School brings together students from all over Europe to explore the roots of the European project — its shared values and cultural, religious, and philosophical foundations. This year’s edition focused particularly on the challenges posed by populism and invited students to reflect on the future of Europe.

Throughout the week, participants engaged in a variety of activities, including lectures, workshops, and thought-provoking debates.
