Early in the morning there was the sound of explosions and the sky lit up. Since 24 February 2022, Lund University has stood in solidarity with Ukraine’s universities. Are there lessons to be learned from the period when Kiev’s largest university had to rapidly adapt to war and a humanitarian crisis? This is an article from LTHIn (the Faculty of Engineering).

A sudden bang. The hand grenade has caused me severe shrapnel injuries: a punctured lung, my liver is bleeding and the wound on my leg is causing rapid blood loss. The medics decide that this requires an intervention from the trauma squad. I am loaded onto a stretcher and driven to the surgery tent. It is Monday morning, and the Aurora 23 military exercise is in full swing in southern Sweden. I am

Twenty University staff members participated as test cyclists on the super cycle path between Södra Sandby and Lund over a six-week period in September and October. The results exceeded expectations and most of the test cyclists who had not commuted by bike before improved their fitness and sleep. Are you thinking about starting to cycle to work in the spring? If so, you may be inspired by a proje

As more and more countries move away from democracy and only seven per cent of the world’s population lives in liberal democracies, Europe’s self-image is being put to the test. At the university’s debate forum, ‘Debatt i Lund’, journalists and researchers came together to discuss whether the EU’s values and soft power still matter - or whether the world has already moved on. The liberal democracy

The ground floor of the University Library will be refurbished and preparations will start in the summer. During the renovation, the public section will be emptied and the number of study places will be more than halved.

I den långvariga konflikten i Israel och Palestina är det de oskyldiga civila som betalar det högsta priset. Oavsett vad den andra sidan gjort ska den internationella humanitära rätten alltid upprätthållas. Det understryker folkrättsforskaren Alberto Rinaldi. Hamas attack mot Israel den 7 oktober var startskottet för det pågående och senaste kriget som krävt tusentals liv. På tre veckor har det dö
