16th of February 1918. 20 members of Council of Lithuania sign a document. It announces the restoration of independent state of Lithuania, severing all governing connections with other countries, and proclaiming that newly re-established state will be regulated by democratic principles.

Little did they know that after 100 years, another world war, after country and its parts being ruled by several nations, Lithuanians will be celebrating this date as one of the most important in their history.

The Act of February 16th united people who were fighting for free and independent Lithuania. And today we are celebrating it as our day of Independence and a 100th birthday of our modern democratic country.

We appreciate this freedom. Living in Lithuania or abroad, studying or working, you never forget where you come from. And you feel immensely proud of your roots when you share them with others. And that’s what we as ESNers do quite well.

When most people think about ESN, they think about volunteers taking care of international students. Organization encouraging mobility. But it’s more than that.

We explain incoming international students why we eat 12 dishes on Christmas Eve and tell them that not a bunny, but the Easter granny brings us chocolates on the most important spring holiday. We explain why our most unique national soup is pink. We encourage them (or politely insist) to try our other national dishes. Today we will be telling about our history and perhaps for the nth time explaining why we have not one but two independence days.

As ESN Lithuania volunteers, we constantly represent Lithuania in international events. Be it bringing some Lithuanian food to Euro dinners, speaking about their home universities and towns during their own exchange studies, presenting country and its culture in mobility fairs, flag parades, mobility conferences or other events all over Europe and beyond. And we will continue to do so.

We are proud of our country. We are grateful for its freedom. And we are extremely happy to say “Su gimtadieniu, Lietuva” today.

'Don't be a thingist,' said Erasmus Student Network Lithuania in December 2017 and encouraged exchange students studying in Lithuania to donate various goods for an honourable cause.

Leaving country and leaving things

After a long autumn semester buying clothes, kitchen utensils and books to make their rooms and flats in Lithuania a little bit more like home, international students had a chance to make a good use of their things by donating them to those who really need.

Before leaving Lithuania and going home, students were donating things they won’t be using anymore or taking back to their countries. Students mostly donated clothes and shoes. Kitchen and home utensils like cups, kettles, pans and cutlery were a common donation as well.

Initiative came from students

ESN Lithuania came up with the idea to gather and later on donate things from Erasmus and exchange students because all volunteers of the network saw how many things students leave when they departure from Lithuania after their exchange semester. Moreover, students themselves were often asking where they could leave things they don't need, as throwing them away after using only a couple of months seemed like a waste.

Social campaign ‘Don't be a thingist’ was running for both spring and autumn semesters in 2017. Both times it engaged students from more than 6 higher education institutions in 2 cities.

Big universities and small colleges alike gathered many good quality items for people who cannot afford them. With the help of platform www.aukokdaiktus.lt, the donated goods  reached people in Vilnius and Kaunas.

ESN Lithuania and www.aukokdaiktus.lt started their partnership in 2012 and since then organized a couple of similar social campaigns.

Not the only social campaign

‘Don't be a thingist’ was organized as a part of the project SocialErasmus by Erasmus Student Network. The project is encouraging international students not only to explore the culture and country they are studying at but also to leave a piece of them in it by helping those in need or getting involved in various volunteering activities.

The project, as well as the ‘Don't be a thingist’ campaign is continuously getting more awareness and attracting more students. Thus, the events will continue upcoming semester. International students can join Social Inclusion days, together with ESN volunteers visit various animal shelters and centres of people with disabilities, enrich local community by volunteering for different causes, and, again, before they leave, donate things to others.

Local students are also very welcome to join SocialErasmus events and volunteer. More information and news about the events can be found on ESN Lithuania Facebook page.

The time has come... All year we have working hard for the same cause. And now it is our time to shine... We proudly announce the second Gala Dinner in the whole history of ESN Lithuania, which will gather more than one hundred beautiful ESNers in one place at the same time.

Between 2nd and 8th May 2016, the sections of Erasmus Student Network (ESN) will organise volunteering activities that have a social impact under the umbrella of SocialErasmus Week Spring 2016, a biannual celebration of the SocialErasmus project.

SocialErasmus is an international project developed in Poland in 2009, that became recognised internationally by the network in 2010. The project was created with the purpose of involving international youth in their local communities by volunteering in their host countriesand contributing to the surrounding society. In order to better show the social impact of the project, all ESN sections are invited to organise activities in the same timeframe, twice per year, in what it is known as SocialErasmus Week.

SocialErasmus promotes a social attitude among international students and facilitates their social integration into the local community while exploring the added value that resides in Europe's diversity. Besides this, international volunteers have a better chance to expand their knowledge of other cultures and educational systems and to have a first-hand experience with locals. Through their engagement, students enrich their curricula, gain experiences, knowledge, understanding, and a sense of appreciation for Europe. Also, they show others that mobility does not only consist of travelling or studying abroad, but also active engagement.

ESN sections are encouraged to organise their best and most innovative SocialErasmus activities this week. During this edition, the focus is on the importance of the social impact international volunteers have upon the local communities. Even though they are not wearing capes, the volunteers are seen as heroes. They dedicate their time to make a difference in the societies they are in and to make life easier for the people around them. The activities are open for everyone who wants to give something back and to leave his/her mark in the surrounding community.

Follow the event on social media with the hashtags #SocialErasmus, #SocialErasmusWeekand #LeaveYourMark!

For more information about SocialErasmus Week Spring 2016, please visit the Facebook event. More information on the SocialErasmus project can be found onsocialerasmus.esn.org.

We are all in the Milky Way... Maybe it is time to have some changes? Let's change galaxies for the 28th time!
BETWEEN GALAXIES - that is what ESN Šiauliai is planing to show us this time!
