Erasmus Days 2026: Grab your cameras for the ENSAPLV student photo contest!

How about showing Europe in a different light? To mark Erasmus Days 2026, which will take place from October 12 to 17, ENSAPLV invites all students at the school to participate in a photo contest with a European theme.
Human dignity, freedom, peace, democracy, equality, human rights, pluralism, tolerance and solidarity, justice! Choose one of the core values that underpin Europe and interpret it in your own way through a photograph.
The contest is open to all students at the school enrolled in bachelor’s and master’s programs for the 2026–2027 academic year.
Participation in the contest is voluntary and free of charge, and requires that you be the author of the photo submitted.
It also implies unconditional acceptance of the terms and conditions governing the contest.
The deadline for entries is Thursday, October 15, 2026, at midnight.
The school’s three communities—undergraduate and graduate students, faculty members, and administrative staff—will then be invited to vote for their favorite photos from October 16 to 26, 2026, at 12:00 p.m.
At the end of this process, the three photos with the most “Likes” will be named the winners of the photo contest, and their photographers will receive one of the following prizes:
- 1st prize: a multi-store gift card worth 100 €;
- 2nd prize: a multi-store gift card worth 60 €;
- 3rd prize: a multi-store gift card worth €40.
The results of the competition will be announced on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, during the opening of the “Retour de mobilités” exhibition. This exhibition will showcase numerous photos, videos, and projects created by the school’s students during their study abroad program in the 2025–2026 academic year.
