From May 15 to 17, 2025, the Erasmus Mundus Student and Alumni Association (EMA) gathered its international community in Paris for inspiring and impactful events. The 2nd Annual Conference and the 19th General Assembly were a three-day gathering held under the theme “Go Green: Connect, Innovate, Sustain.” It brought together EMA members, alumni, volunteers, professionals, and partners from across the globe to collaborate, reflect, and reimagine the future of the Erasmus Mundus network through the lens of sustainability and innovation.



EMA 2nd Annual Conference Highlights


The 2nd Annual Conference opened on May 15 with keynote addresses from EMA’s Presidency and representatives of the European Commission. The event brought together a diverse group of participants, including local academics and diplomats from Paris, as well as EMA members, Erasmus Mundus students, and alumni based in the city. The agenda featured a series of thought-provoking sessions on topics such as sustainability in higher education, employability and global talent development, and how AI is shaping sustainable and smart careers.


Through dynamic panel discussions, interactive workshops, and informal networking moments, participants explored innovative ideas and best practices to strengthen community-led impact. The conference set a vibrant tone for the days that followed, energizing members and partners with a renewed sense of purpose.

The General Assembly, held on May 16 and 17, focused on community reflection and future planning. The first day opened with a warm welcome from EMA’s leadership and a celebration of the association’s 19th anniversary. Members participated in co-creation sessions on strategy, sustainability, and engagement, helping shape the association’s direction in an inclusive and participatory way.


The second day featured updates from EMA Units, Regional Chapters, and Communities, followed by a leadership debate and the election of EMA's President and Vice President for 2025-2027. A highlight of the Assembly was the EMA Awards Ceremony, where outstanding individuals and teams were recognised for their exceptional contributions to the network’s mission.



The event concluded with a joyful Cultural Evening, where attendees showcased their traditional attire — a vibrant tribute to EMA’s diversity and global spirit. Together, these moments not only celebrated EMA’s progress but also laid a strong foundation for its next chapter, grounded in transparency, collaboration, and shared vision.


To everyone who participated — in person or online — thank you for making EMA in Paris 2025 a memorable and meaningful experience. The connections built and ideas exchanged over these three days will continue to shape our journey forward.

For Diuwin game login, does anyone know if there is a minimum amount required to start playing? I want to try it with a small amount first just to understand the process properly.

A stable home network requires occasional attention to security and configuration. Understanding the available router controls can help users review their settings and identify potential connection issues. The address 10.0.0.1 may be useful for this purpose when supported by the equipment.
