Club Alpbach Senza Confini Welcomes New Scholarship Holders and Awards Honorary Membership

June 27, 2026 | Klagenfurt

Club Alpbach Senza Confini officially welcomed its newest scholarship holders during a ceremony at the Spiegelsaal in Klagenfurt. The event brought together scholarship holders, sponsors, partners, and members of our community to celebrate the next generation of young people joining the Senza Confini network.

A special highlight of the ceremony was the participation of Gaby Schaunig, Deputy Governor of Carinthia. In recognition of her long-standing support for our club and her continued commitment to cross-border cooperation and the Alpe Adria spirit, we were proud to present her with an Honorary Membership in Club Alpbach Senza Confini.

The event also offered an opportunity to thank our sponsors, whose support enables young people from the Senza Confini region to participate in the European Forum Alpbach and become part of an international community committed to dialogue, exchange, and cooperation.

As Gaby Schaunig emphasized during the ceremony, the Senza Confini spirit is about how we live, learn, and grow together across borders. With our new scholarship holders officially welcomed, we now look forward to EFA26 and to experiencing this spirit together in Alpbach.

Liebe Studierende,
Sehr geehrte Interessierte am Forum Alpbach,

der Club Alpbach Senza Confini (CASC), sowie der Uni Management Club laden am 09.03.2020 um 16:00 Uhr in den Stiftungssaal der Alpen-Adria Universität Klagenfurt ein, um mehr über das Forum Alpbach und dessen Organisation zu erfahren. Die Präsidentin des Clubs und einige Mitglieder werden über ihre Erfahrungen in den letzten Jahren berichten und bekannt geben, wie man selbst Teil dieses innovativen Netzwerks werden kann. Seit 2003 ermöglichte es der CASC über 100 Stipendiaten, in Alpbach dabei zu sein und wertvolle Erfahrungen mit heim zu nehmen.

Nach dem offiziellen Teil werden gemeinsam mit dem Publikum die Herausforderungen diskutiert, welche Kärnten überwinden muss, damit junge, innovative Menschen im Bundesland ihr Potential entfalten können. Bei diesem World-Café werden auch Sponsoren, ehemalige Stipendiaten und Freunde des Club Alpbach Senza Confini teilnehmen. Um gleich mit dem Geist von Alpbach in Berührung zu kommen, wird ein horizontaler Ansatz des Diskutierens gewählt, bei welchem die Teilnehmer zu unterschiedlichen Themengebieten gleichzeitig ihre Meinung mit einbringen können. Diese Themen werden zB. sein: “Innovation in Kärnten” oder “Kultur und Freizeit”. Die Aufgabe der Teilnehmer, also EURE Aufgabe wird es sein Know-how in die Diskussionsrunde einfließen zu lassen, während eine vorab ausgewählte Person die Diskussion gliedert und protokolliert. Anschließend werden die Ergebnisse jedes Tisches in einer ein- bis zweiminütigen Präsentation auf der Bühne von einem Freiwilligen präsentiert. Abschließend wird jedem, im Rahmen eines Buffets noch die Möglichkeit des Networkings gegeben.

Alle Teilnehmer haben hier die Möglichkeit sich mit interessanten Leuten zu verbinden und ihre Chancen auf ein Stipendium 2020 für Alpbach steigen zu erhöhen. Bei uns kann jeder wertvolle Erfahrungen für die Zukunft sammeln! Wir freuen uns um eine kurze Zusage unter info@senza-confini.com und eine spannende Diskussionsrunde am 09.03.2020 und 16:00 Uhr.

Wir freuen uns auf euch
Ciao
Pozdravljeni
