University Tent at the Africa Festival
From May 23 to 25, 2026, the Africa Festival 2026 took place – this time in the heart of Würzburg’s city center. The Africa Competence Centre of the University of Würzburg (ACCUW) was represented with the University Tent directly in front of City Hall at the Vierröhrenbrunnen fountain, once again showcasing a selection of the many Africa-related research projects at the University of Würzburg.
