Start a Student Project with Support from COLOURS
Do you have an idea that could make a difference? Through the European COLOURS alliance, students at Kristianstad University have the opportunity to apply for support to start their own non-profit project linked to a societal challenge.
If your idea is connected to one of our conducted Co-Labs, you and your team can apply to run a student project. Approved projects receive up to €3000 in funding.
You’ll also gain access to guidance, a personal mentor, and a workspace at Co Space in central Kristianstad. This is a great opportunity to develop your entrepreneurial skills, collaborate with others, and contribute to real change in society.
Once you contact the Co Space Officer to initiate your student project, you’ll receive a project plan template. When your plan is ready, submit your application using the form below: https://forms.office.com/e/RzKa5SkipS
We receive project proposals continuously from student groups, and each pitch is assessed according to the criteria below. The approval of SE-funding is made by the local COLOURS management at HKR. A maximum of six projects may be granted funding per year.
