September 2022 Ben Lewis at Franco-German Student Affairs Colloquium
Ben Lewis recently attended the Franco-German Student Affairs Colloquium hosted by Deutches Studentenwerk in Frieburg, Germany. Said Lewis: “I was speaking on change management in Student Affairs in the UK. I was able to connect with colleagues from France, Belgium, Germany, Ireland and Norway as part of the colloquium discussions. It was a great opportunity to share learning and thinking about student affairs as a profession, and consider he different models for our work across Europe.
This led to discussion about IASAS and the start of conversations about opportunities for growth in engagement. I hope we can take these discussions further in the coming months.”
