Steps and tips for organising an activity
For each year that you participate in the Humanities Honors Programme, you are required to organize a portfolio activity. This can be a lot of fun, but can also be difficult. On this page you can find a step-by-step plan for organizing an activity. Do you have questions? Don’t hesitate to contact us by email or WhatsApp
(Basic) Step-by-step plan
- Think about your activity and what you will need. Do you need to arrange a specific location, do you need speakers, do you need funding from the HHP or Eureka?
- Arrange the things that need to be arranged for your activity.Keep in mind that things take time, for example apply for funding, a location and speakers well in time, assume at least two to three weeks.
- Send a short description of your event, including the date and location, to the Internal Commissioner. This will ensure that the event is promoted on the website, Facebook and the Whatsapp. You can choose to create the banner and promotional text yourself, but this will also be done with pleasure. You can send it in via Whatsapp or to bestuur@sveureka.nl. DO THIS AT LEAST TWO WEEKS BEFORE YOUR ACTIVITY TAKES PLACE. Then there will be plenty of time for the promotion.
- Organise your activity.
- Send photos to the internal commissioner, take care of the financial processing and enjoy the afterglow!
Loose tips
- Always keep your receipts or scan them directly, without a receipt you cannot get your money back. This applies to both money you receive from the HHP and money you receive from SV Eureka.
- Useful places for meetings include the room next to the Eureka room (which can be reserved by signing the form hanging on the door) or the rooms in the UB that can be reserved via https://resourcebooker.uu.nl/ https://resourcebooker.uu.nl/.
- If you need help, you can always contact the board on roomdays, or by sending an email to bestuur@sveureka.nl
- If you’re happy about the activity you’ve organized, you can always write a text about it for the honors blog. If you want to do this, send an email to one of the student assistants.
- If you have invited speakers to an activity, it is good to arrange a gift, but this does not have to be large.
