Alumni of the Faculty of Law
It's impossible to forget Namur's Faculty of Law once you've been there! The mutual attachment is very real during and after studies, and contacts remain numerous in what could be described as "the Namur spirit". That's why some alumni have founded ADANam, the Association des Anciens de la Faculté de droit de Namur.

Arcadie, a new research centre in the ESPHIN institute
Arcadia is the name of an ideal society, a bucolic utopia. But it is also the name chosen by the members of a brand-new research centre at UNamur. This centre, created within the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters and attached to the ESPHIN institute, questions three themes at the heart of our contemporaneity: the Anthropocene, history and utopias.

Diving into the Mawda case: a unique and innovative educational project
This is a first in terms of pedagogical approach: to have all the students and teachers of the Faculty of law, all blocks (bachelor in daytime and in staggered timetable) and programmes combined, work for an academic year on the same theme. From courses to practical work, including conferences, cultural and artistic events and civic engagement, all the activities proposed by the Faculty of law focus on the same theme: childhood in a migratory context. The project is called "Fill rouge" (Red thread). After a successful first four months, the momentum is building for the second half of the academic year.
