Collective journey in three acts: LIACOM annual meeting and ESCS UNESCO Chair Residency

On 14 July, the 2nd LIACOM Researchers’ Meeting and the 2nd ESCS UNESCO Chair Residency will take place.

Held annually, these events aim to create a space that fosters closer connections among the team while providing opportunities for reflection and collaborative work.

Under the theme “A collective journey in three acts – Identity, Connection and Action”, this year’s edition invites participants to embark on a journey of discovery and co-creation throughout a day dedicated to sharing experiences, exchanging ideas, and developing projects that explore shared interests and common ground.

The event will take place from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Universidade Atlântica – Fábrica da Pólvora, in Oeiras, and includes a lunch hosted by LIACOM.
