Moving the Cities 2023 ― EN

Moving the Cities 2023 was a spectacular, student-centered entrepreneurship challenge that brought together students, professors, industry and universities from three continents! 

For the sixth time, Moving the Cities 2023 brought together over 100 innovative student minds from Brazil, Chile, Bolivia, Germany, the US, and Austria, and multiple regional innovation agencies. For the first time, Germany was the host for the hybrid format. Based in Münster and inspired by the Peace of Westphalia treaty signed there 375 ago, the goal was to develop concepts and solutions to SDG-17- in the spirit of friendship between nations and global partnerships.
 

Since its founding, the project underlined the networking character and helped accelerate the larger international initiative "xRegions". xRegions, named one of Germany's 30 best ideas for education, science and innovation by the Stifterverband in 2020, is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).

We thank FH Muenster for coordinating this initiative and DWIH São Paulo for their support.
