"I traveled along with ten students from George Brown School of Design in Toronto for a week long intense collaborative process in Copenhagen Denmark. We joined 80 international students from various disciplines at KEA Copenhagen School of Design and Technology and we spent a week working together and revitalizing sites in the city. It was both a challenge and a ton of fun, and overall an amazing experience."


This event is going on the 3rd edition always with several challenges, from integrating a team of international teachers, to conduct a group of students from different countries or participate in the Board as Advisors panel to select the best projects in each category. In the edition of this year, nine countries participated in a total of sixty-four students and ten teachers.

The team where IADE-U participated, won the award for best presentation / Ignite. The organization, issued a challenge to the institution participate in the 2015 edition with a group of Portuguese students.

IADE-U participation



In addition to this participation, under the Course of Multimedia Design University of KEA - Copenhagen School of Design and Technology, IADE-U also contributed to the seminar "Peer to peer review," where 35 students joined the international line, as the aim to make known how these type of usability evaluations of digital interfaces are realized.




This work trip was so short that I chose to join a morning run to relax by the fantastic parks from Copenhagen, while I was going through some places that I had not yet been opportunity to see and finished with an organic meal in the new "Copenhagen Street Food".
