On June 9, 2024, Belgians will be called to the polls to elect their European, federal and regional representatives. With its Department of Political, Social and Communication Sciences, and the research carried out within the Transitions Institute, UNamur is sharing its expertise to inform and raise awareness among students, the general public and also professionals in the political and legal sector, about the major issues at stake in this election! Today, Arthur Borriello, Professor of Political Science at UNamur, discusses the rise of the extreme right. Our aim? In five questions, to understand the causes and mechanisms, and to show the importance of the citizen's role in the fight against the extreme right.

Today, over 18% of Belgians are at risk of poverty or social exclusion. Faced with this reality, indifference or paternalism are still too often the only responses. That's why research, from philosophy to law to economics, today intends to better understand the different faces of vulnerability.

Noé, Méline and Romain are master’s students in management sciences and management engineering at UNamur. In spring 2023, they and five other students had the opportunity to spend a few days in Italy, at the Università Carlo Cattaneao near Milan. The exchange was organised as part of the Blended Intensive Programmes (BIP) under the Erasmus + programme. Read their testimonials!

Over-indebtedness, addiction, homelessness, lack of access to rights, begging... Professionals in the health, education and social action sectors are directly confronted with social inequalities and precariousness. Their commitment requires them to work in an interdisciplinary way, to take a reflective look at their practices and to use relevant theoretical models. In response to this need, UNamur, HENALLUX, HEPN and UCLouvain, in collaboration with Formanam and Resinam, are organising a Certificate in Supporting Extreme Precariousness. A discussion with Christine Mahy, General Secretary of the Walloon Anti-Poverty Network (RWLP), was held to open up the debate on some of the key issues that will be addressed during this continuing education course.

A cyber-attack occurs every 39 seconds worldwide. And the commercial losses caused by cybercrime are estimated to exceed 5,000 billion dollars by 2024. At a time when the fight against this type of crime represents a fundamental challenge for society, the Master students in Management were challenged to find innovative solutions to raise awareness of cybersecurity among audiences identified as being vulnerable. It was a realistic and ambitious exercise, as the students had to work for a client: DNS Belgium, which administers the .be, .vlaanderen and .brussels domain names. Organised in the form of a challenge, the exercise was supervised by managers from DNS Belgium, IBM and academics from UNamur. Focus on the three winning projects!

At the University of Namur, master's students in management engineering have the opportunity to follow an immersion course, taking part in three in-company internships. This is the path followed by Lhorie Pirnay. During her internships, she worked on improving "Hybrid Strategy Maps", a tool designed to help companies optimize their decisions. Backed by a network of influential sponsors, the former student, now a doctoral student, has just obtained the invaluable support of Win4SpinOff funding to develop her project. A first step towards the creation of a spin-off. Read on.

Since 2022, the Faculty of Law has chosen an annual theme that brings together the entire faculty—students and faculty alike—across all tracks and programs. This overarching theme is incorporated into courses, tutorials, assignments, public speaking competitions, lectures, and educational and cultural activities offered throughout the academic year. This inspiring and values-driven dynamic continues to make the educational environment at the University of Namur even more unique. Thus, in 2022–2023, we focused on CHILDHOOD & MIGRATION; in 2023–2024, on HARASSMENT in all its forms; and in 2024–2025, on INCLUSION, with the goal of enabling everyone to find their place in society regardless of race, gender, social class, generation, ability, romantic and/or sexual preferences, and so on. Throughout the year, we raised awareness about racism, LGBTQIA+ issues, people with disabilities, the elderly and very young, fatphobia, and more. 

In 2023, UNamur opened a fourth CaNDLE call funded through the joint support of the Fonds Jérôme pour le développement durable and the Assemblée des Cercles of UNamur students. Discover one of the 7 selected projects.
