Last years\u2019 experience was truly engaging and helped me develop my organisational, networking and teamwork abilities. Taking part in the Alliance\u2019s workshops also introduced me to new and inspiring contexts, which have greatly contributed to my personal growth. I\u2019m really looking forward to taking on this role again and helping my fellow students discover the many valuable opportunities offered by the Alliance.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-273447 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/mattia-300x256.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"256\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/mattia-300x256.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/mattia-1024x875.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/mattia-768x656.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/mattia-1536x1313.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/mattia.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My name is <strong>Mattia<\/strong>.

I\u2019m originally from Lazio, but I\u2019ve lived in various parts of Italy and abroad, and I\u2019m currently based in Lucca. Having grown up in an international environment, I have always seen learning about different cultures as a wonderful way of gaining new perspectives on the world around me. I have long been interested in Circle U.\u2019s initiatives and in the possibilities for international cooperation at university level. It\u2019s an honour for me to have been appointed as an Ambassador for the University of Pisa and to have the opportunity to participate in an experience that will challenge me both personally and professionally.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-273449 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/diego-300x258.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"258\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/diego-300x258.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/diego-1024x882.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/diego-768x662.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/diego-1536x1323.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/diego.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Hi everyone, I\u2019m <strong>Diego<\/strong>. I study Medicine and Surgery at the University of Pisa and I\u2019m one of the new Circle U. Ambassadors. I came across this initiative by chance while helping a friend look for a post-degree internship: I received an email about some available positions in Brussels. The more I read about it, the more interesting and ambitious I found the project, and I decided to get involved because I strongly believe in the values promoted by the Alliance. Circle U. offers me the chance to engage with students and researchers from other countries, take part in multidisciplinary activities that are rarely part of a traditional university course, and perhaps form friendships that last beyond one\u2019s studies. For me, it represents a chance to explore new perspectives, step out of my comfort zone and build connections that transcend national borders. I\u2019m excited to begin this journey and to help other students at our University discover the opportunities offered by the Alliance.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-273453 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/anna25-300x265.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/anna25-300x265.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/anna25-1024x906.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/anna25-768x679.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/anna25-1536x1359.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.unipi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/anna25-2048x1812.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Hello everyone! I\u2019m <strong>Anna<\/strong>, I\u2019m from La Spezia and I\u2019m in the second year of my PhD in Italian Studies at the University of Pisa. I first heard about the Circle U. Alliance a couple of years ago thanks to my professor and supervisor Michelangelo Zaccarello, who also serves as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.circle-u.eu\/about\/platforms\/mil\/\">Academic Chair of the Multilingualism, Interculturality and Language Lab (CU.mil)<\/a>. Knowing my curiosity and enthusiasm to collaborate with academic environments beyond Italy, he encouraged me to get involved. From the very beginning, I was impressed by the energy and collaborative spirit that characterise the Alliance. This is why I decided to apply as an Ambassador last year, an experience which has been incredibly enriching and has inspired me to renew my commitment this year. I\u2019m truly happy to begin this second term, with the same enthusiasm as before, but also with greater awareness and new goals. I can\u2019t wait to help other students discover the many initiatives promoted by Circle U. and to participate in events that offer valuable educational opportunities as well as moments of personal growth and intercultural exchange.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New voices and fresh ideas will spread and strengthen the Alliance within the Unipi student community<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":273440,"menu_order":3,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"tag-notizie-persone":[],"tags_news":[207,1227,266],"categorie":[],"class_list":["post-275784","news","type-news","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tags_news-circle-u-en","tags_news-international-en","tags_news-students"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Four new Circle U.
