MicroShield (HU, MD, KAZ) 12-13. August
Think you’re just drinking water? Think again.
Did you know that the average European ingests around 5 grams of microplastics every week – about the weight of a credit card? Over the course of a year, that’s 285 grams, roughly the weight of a mobile phone. These invisible particles may affect our health far more than we realize. Visit the MicroShield team and discover how you can reduce your exposure to microplastics.

DEFEED (PL) 12-13. August
If you think about social media, what are the first 3 words you think of?
Now that you thought of a few, are they positive or negative? Do you feel like opening a platform with a positive thought in mind, or rather experience anxiety? Are you opening an algorithm that supports your mental wellbeing or makes you feel behind or left out. When you are exposed to social media you are against a million illusions as one, but here you are not alone. Visit the DEFEAD and influence yourself.

Keep the Cypher Alive (NL) 12-13. August
Many young people feel lonely and disconnected, even in crowded social spaces. Even our hometown Eindhoven, we see that nightlife can be crowded yet still feel closed off or intimidating. Keep the Cypher Alive responds by creating an inclusive space where strangers can participate in different ways, connect across backgrounds and form a temporary community.

The Pinkies (SK, HU), 14-15. August
Pink isn’t always pretty. Ever wondered why products marketed to women often cost more? Or why periods are still a luxury for so many? The Pinkies tackle pink tax and menstrual poverty with bold questions, playful challenges and zero awkwardness. Come curious, leave with a fresh perspective.

ASKeD (NL), 14-15. August
Loneliness among young people is growing fast—even in a world that’s always online. Constant connection doesn’t always mean real connection, and many still feel surprisingly alone.
ASKeD looks at this gap and the barriers behind it, exploring how we can turn everyday moments into something more real, human, and connected.
