The STAND Festival visited UL in October 2026. With the overall theme How Can We Live Together?, a series of events took place to raise awareness and explore issues of peace, global solidarity and sustainability. The collaboration with UL Education for Sustainable Development, included an exhibition in the main UL Plaza, a workshop on a toolkit for educators, and a Global Solidarity Fair with UL student volunteers and the UL Student Environmental Society. STAND is a strategic partner of Irish Aid with a remit to embed critical Global Citizenship Education across higher education in Ireland.
