A choir of robots sounds like science fiction! Yet it is a reality at the University of Namur. In the robotics laboratory of the Faculty of Computer Science, researchers from the naXys institute, led by professors Elio Tuci and Timoteo Carletti, some members of TRAKK, some artists and external partners collaborated on the "Synthetic Choirs" project.

More than 300 students in the Bachelor of Law programme, from both the daytime and the evening shift, took their heads out of their syllabi for an evening to project themselves into their future. Like every year, their faculty had invited them to meet with law professionals. Each of them shared their passion, their daily life, but also the darker aspects of their work. It was a perfect opportunity to discover what lies behind the many opportunities in law, grouped into five panels: lawyers, the judiciary, notaries, bailiffs, and politicians (parliamentary attachés or diplomats).

Congratulations to Carla Coduti and Matteo Ghislain who respectively received the public and jury prizes in the International Humanitarian Law mock trial! This very special exercise demonstrates the active pedagogical approach dear to the UNamur Faculty of Law.

How to cope with the Y2K bug? How to ensure the transition to a single currency in Europe, the euro? It's the late 1990s, and the need for IT manpower is greater than ever to meet the growing needs of the IT industry. It was against this backdrop that UNamur and its Faculty of Computer Science boldly and proactively developed a new course of study: a staggered timetable leading to a Master's degree in Computer Science. Twenty-five years later, interest in this training and its societal necessity are more relevant than ever.

The workshop provides a forum for the discussion of new research directions and applications in Artificial Life, Evolutionary Computation and in related fields, where different disciplines and research areas could effectively meet. It was first held in 2007 in Sampieri (Ragusa), as the incorporation of two separate workshops (WIVA and GSICE).

A decade ago, Elise Degrave was the first in Belgium to focus her thesis on data protection in a digital state. Today, she is widely recognized in this field in the public, political, legal and academic spheres. An expertise and a personality, once again rewarded on the occasion of the Cérémonie des Namurois de l'année, where Elise Degrave has just been named the winner in the Sciences category..

Getting students to work together around a single theme throughout the academic year is the dynamic that continues during this second term at the Faculty of Law. After having explored childhood and migration in its first edition, this year's Fil Rouge (Red Thread) weaves around harassment. Numerous awareness-raising initiatives have been undertaken. Just one example? In mid-March, a session dedicated to street harassment was organized by and for law students.

The Faculty of Law's project is to get students working together around a single theme, which will be implemented in all courses throughout the academic year. After exploring childhood and migration in its first edition, this year's Fil Rouge focuses on the theme of harassment. Following a conclusive first four months, the momentum has been stepped up for this second half of the academic year.
