Share Your Green Mobility Story with Arqus

Are you an exchange student currently arranging your travels or already immersed in a more sustainable lifestyle abroad? “Tell Your Mobility Story” (TYMS) returns this year with a clear focus on environmentally responsible mobility. Arqus invites students to create a short video of up to 90 seconds that presents a personal “green” journey, highlighting not only travel choices but also broader sustainable practices adopted during the mobility period.

Participants are encouraged to reflect on all aspects of daily life through a sustainability lens. This may include travelling across Europe by rail, furnishing accommodation with second-hand items, or embracing local, low-waste living. Every conscious decision made during an exchange can serve as a meaningful example, offering inspiration to fellow students and contributing to a more environmentally aware Arqus community.

Students wishing to take part are asked to express their interest by completing the application form by 30 April. Upon registration, participants will receive further guidance, including technical recommendations to support the creation of their video. Completed videos must be submitted by 31 May. In June, all entries will be published on the official Arqus YouTube channel, where viewers will be invited to vote for their favourite submissions until 10 July.

The most compelling entries will be featured in Arqus promotional activities related to international mobility. The creator of the video receiving the highest number of votes will be awarded a Eurail pass, with an approximate value of €900, enabling further sustainable travel across Europe, either individually or together with a companion.

Registration is available here.
