The competition encourages Unite! students to share their vision of the university of the future based on concrete projects. The winning team, made up of students from Wrocław Tech (Poland) and Aalto University (Finland), will travel to Lisbon next summer to attend the Unite! Students Festival
The Night-time Letter Writing charity event, presented by students from Wrocław University of Science and Technology and Aalto University, was the winning proposal of the third edition of the Unite!4Future Competition, which is promoted annually by the alliance. The winning team was announced during the 7th Unite! Dialogue held in Grenoble from 28 February to 2 March. 

Night-time Letter Writing is an event that consists in writing letters with requests for support for a scholarship fund that benefits students with disabilities studying at the new universities that are part of Unite! The event will take place next year in 2024 and anyone who wants to become involved, and help can come and write a letter asking for support for the students. 

An international winning team

International cooperation between universities is one of the principles of the competition and the alliance. This time the winning team consisted of Karina Skowrońska, Eliza Spętana, Natalia Sienkiewicz, Tobiasz Pędzik, Wiktor Kępiński and Santeri Kokkonen. All of them are actively involved in different social initiatives at their universities. 

 "Our proposal for Unite4Future was night letter writing, an initiative already well known at the University of Science and Technology in Wroclaw, but designed for the rest of the universities in Unite! The team developed a new vision of the project, which aims to enable students with disabilities at the new Unite! universities to pursue their dreams and passions," explains Karina Skowronska on behalf of the whole team. She adds that "the night letter-writing, like Unite! shows that young people can come together and create something bigger. We are very happy that our project has been chosen as the best of all those that competed in this edition".
