“The campus goes to the city, the city meets with the campus”

After a highly successful first edition in 2014, the International Festival of University Sports, ‘Lausanne in Motion’, returns in 2016 and this time as part of the ‘International University Sports Day’ proclaimed by UNESCO.

The event, which is a marriage between sport, culture and education, has become the gathering place where the students and the citizens of Lausanne can communicate and share moments of celebration.

FISU is willing to stand closer to the aspirations of youth, to be fully integrated in the academic world and actively participate in the life of the city. That's why the project of this FISU Festival is built by students, for students and for the City.

Our gratitude goes to the Canton de Vaud, to the City of Lausanne, the University of Lausanne, the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, and to all citizens of Lausanne for becoming our partners and friends.

Oleg Matytsin,

FISU President
