New to the “Studium International” Certificate: Active Involvement with the “Academy in Exile”

Students who participate in the “Garden(s) of Refuge” project will now be able to have this participation credited toward Module C (Track 1) of the “Studium International” certificate.

The Garden(s) of Refuge project offers international students and visiting scholars, as well as interested German students, the opportunity to engage in mutual exchange. In addition to this exchange, the project focuses on the positive psychological aspects of working in nature, the sustainability of the project, and an exploration of the topics of (climate) displacement, exile, and academic freedom. You can receive a certificate of participation for regular attendance and active involvement in this project.

To earn credit toward the “Studium International” certificate in Module C (Track 1), you must attend at least six sessions within a semester.

The “Planting a Mini Forest IV” block seminar is currently scheduled for October 5–9, 2026. All details can be found in this poster from the Academy in Exile.

These pages provide more information about the “Studium International” certificate, and here you can find the Garden of Refuge.
