PARTICIPANTS

ISWiB participants are young people who are communicative, motivated to make a change, want to share their opinion and ideas for a better world, and are willing to spend eight amazing days in our capital city, with other young people from all over the globe, sharing a variety of experiences. If you see yourself between those lines, apply and join us in Belgrade this summer!

Summer is closer than you think. Want this summer to be the best ever? Do you want to travel, to have a good time, to go to the wildest parties, meet a lot of people and learn something new – you’re in the right place. If you are communicative, open to new acquaintances, tolerant, intrigued by social problems and would love for people to learn more about your country – you’re in the right place. Are you willing to spend eight days with other young people from all over the globe and work with them on a variety of problems?

We invite not only students from all faculties, but also recent graduates to show their skills and knowledge! Get out of your comfort zone and apply! Don’t miss your life-time experience, grab your seat at International Student Week in Belgrade, and we will take care of everything else. See you!

During the festival, participants will be accommodated in the student dormitory “Petar Drapšin”, located in Kralja Petra Street, near the center of Belgrade. This dormitory provides a comfortable stay for students and guests and is situated in one of the oldest and most charming parts of the city.

Rooms are typically shared between 4 participants, with shared bathroom facilities. The dorm also includes common areas where participants can relax and socialize during their stay.

The location is very convenient—only a short walk from the city center and many of Belgrade’s main attractions. Several shops, bakeries, cafés, and pharmacies are within walking distance, making it easy for participants to get everything they might need during the festival. Public transport is also easily accessible from the nearby streets.

Here at ISWiB, our goal is to give you a chance to experience multiculturalism in the best possible way while staying in a lively and well-connected part of the Serbian capital!

⚠️ Please note: Participants cannot be accommodated before the arrival day of the festival or after the last day. For ISWiB 2026, accommodation is available from July 19th until July 27th, with July 27th being the departure day.
