Supplementary Evidence of University–Community Engagement
National Student Day Celebration
Larbi Ben M’hidi University commemorated National Student Day under the supervision of the University Rector and in the presence of the province’s civil and military authorities, with Algerian journalist Hafid Derradji attending as guest of honour.
The programme included speeches and recognition of a veteran, a female veteran, the widow of a martyr, the guest of honour, student organisations, cultural and scientific clubs, students who excelled in national competitions organised by the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, and university sports teams that achieved outstanding results in national competitions.
The event demonstrates the University’s engagement with its student community and local stakeholders, as well as its commitment to recognising student achievements and supporting cultural, scientific, and sporting activities. As the available announcement describes a commemorative and recognition event rather than a public training programme, it is included as supplementary evidence for this indicator.
