International Student Week in Timisoara, also know as ISWinT, is an intercultural festival dedicated to students aged 18 to 30 years old enrolled in any university around the world. ISWinT is an international festival, dedicated to students from all the corners of the world. The concept was created in 1994, and it started from the daring ideas of enthusiastic students who believed in unity, multiculturality, and friendship. It grew bigger and bigger, this year reaching its 26th edition, always animated by a new team, new ideas and an ever-increasing number of participants. What ISWinT keeps and passes on from a generation to another is the spirit, enthusiasm, and motivation to make an unforgettable edition each year. Overall, during ISWinT, international cultural diversity takes over the city of Timișoara.
