Student Representatives and Ambassadors

The Student Representatives are elected by the BUP Students' Parliament and represent the students on the BUP International Board. Read more about the BUP Students' Parliament.

Student Ambassadors

The Baltic University Programme's Student Ambassadors are in total 26 students from
14 participating universities that actively promote the BUP and upcoming events at their home universities and in their home countries. They also function as an additional contact person between the Coordinating Secretariat, the National Centres, but also the Student Representatives and the local universities. There are three different profiles that you can chose to be engaged in as a Student Ambassador; the social media group, the research communication group, and the event group. Based on your group you will be able to work closer with the students that share your interest and you will work together in an international context to promote the BUP.

The region has sufficient capacity resources to overcome the uncertainty presented by the Russian war, and by enhancing massive regional cooperation and capacity building, it can lead the competition to net zero by 2050. Scientific collaboration, complemented by public participation, will be the key to sustainable growth.

Shahid Mubasshar

Shahid believed that if trends of the recent past (e.g. steady economic growth, the inflow of immigrants) and current policy practices (e.g. EU political integration) continue to be in effect in the following three decades. In a scenario where the trends are stable, the rural-urban divide will continue to grow. This implies that bigger cities will keep generating economic power and will be able to attract more people while the rural areas will continue to decline.
