About

One World Week is the World's Largest Student-run International Event and is proudly hosted at the University of Warwick every January. It is exceptional in terms of content, passion and commitment and is unmistakably the highlight of the University's calendar. The week aims to be a celebration of the international mix of students present at the University of Warwick and aims to stimulate personal development and inspire a view based on acceptance and appreciation of the world's mosaic of cultures. The week also highlights the importance of awareness of global issues which affect our One World.

As a not-for-profit organisation the Week relies on over 240 volunteer students from across the University working together in a spirit of cooperation and vision to ensure the event is an unequivocal success.

The 13th annual One World Week is due to take place during the 18th to 26th January 2008, and is guaranteed to be an inspiring and unique week of multi-cultural diversity in action. The nine days are set to be crammed full of a wide variety of exciting activities that visitors can participate in, ranging from thought-provoking talks in the One World Forum to nail-bitingly tense drama productions in One World Arts and excitement in the adrenaline-infused tournaments of One World Sports. Then, each day, the action starts early and continues long past sundown as One World Festival celebrates the international traditions and festivities of cultures worldwide, with passionate entertainment ranging from the glamorous catwalk of the Fashion Show to the raw energy and enthusiasm of the Carnival.
