Students from China, Warwick and around the globe will be gathering at the Warwick Venice Centre for a summer school focused around the theme of Marco Polo and the Silks Roads. The project is led by Dr Milija Gluhovic (Theatre and Performance Studies Department, University of Warwick) and developed as one of the EUTOPIA Connected Community Education projects.

Join us across the Warwick UK Campus for a student-led celebration of One World Week and the global cultures that make up our community, co-ordinated as part of the University's Global Celebrations Programme. This week-long celebration will culminate in a celebration of International Students Day on 17th November. More details of events coming soon!

Ca Foscari University (Venice, Italy), Fudan University (Shanghai) and University of Warwick - alongside other global institutions - are participating in the opening of a new exhibition on Marco Polo at Shanghai Museum and a conference 'Marco Polo: Antecedents, History and Legacy' at Fudan University.

Warwick's Global History and Culture Centre will convene a special conference with speakers from around the world on the art and science of telling stories about travel - through time and across the globe.
