The University of Porto Local Student Board (UPSB) is dedicated to enhancing the visibility of EUGLOH across the University of Porto campus. By increasing awareness, the UPSB aims to foster student engagement in EUGLOH and civic participation.
Ensuring inclusiveness and gender balance, this committee embraces a heterogeneous mix of members from distinct study areas, UPorto faculties, backgrounds, profiles and ages. This diversity enriches the dialogue and ensures a holistic representation of the diversity of the UPorto student community.
The UPSB operates under the guidance of the UPorto EUGLOH Team, in close cooperation with the UPorto Communication and Student Engagement Officer, serving as a free, transparent, vibrant and passion-based platform for debating the principles, modus operandi, activities and construction of the EUGLOH Alliance. The UPSB members advocate for the interests and concerns of the student community, striving to create a student-centric environment within the Alliance.
Through active participation in the EUGLOH Alliance, UPSB members advocate for the interests and perspectives of the student community, fostering an environment where students come together to shape initiatives, exchange ideas and promote European affairs, citizenship and European values. They are also active in ensuring the dissemination of EUGLOH education and training opportunities to students from all 14 UPorto faculties.
The University of Porto will open a recruitment process for new members of the Local Student Board. Comprehensive information about the recruitment and selection procedures will be disseminated through different communication channels, including the University of Porto news portal, social media platforms and informational emails. Applicants will have the opportunity to submit their proposals and applications through an online form. The applications will be analysed and evaluated by a selection committee, composed of UPorto student board members and based on specific selection criteria.
