The online training for hosts for the 3rd Virtual Exchange (VE) Week for students (6-10 October 2025) took place on 18 September 2025. Representatives from CLUVEX University: from Finland – UH, from Denmark – UCPH, from Ukraine – TSNUK attended this training.

Laura Riuttanen (UH) shared own experiences and skills from the 1st and 2nd VE Weeks (October 2024 and May 2025, respectively). The role of hosts includes the welcoming attitude to everyone participating in the VE Week, creating for all the engaging and caring atmosphere, taking care of the flow, and always to be open and do it in own personal way. As the VE Week continues during 5 days, on a day-by-day basis, the role of the hosts is – welcoming, introducing themselves, introducing speakers (lecturers and demonstrators of tools for climate related data visualization and analysis), keeping time, hosting questions and answers, introducing break-out rooms, leading wrap-up (presentations and discussions of the Climate Horizons exercises), introducing the feedback forms, aspects of practical organization, etc.
It is planned that the hosts of the 3rd VE Week will be: Yulian Braychevskyy (Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Ukraine) and Maher Sahyoun (University of Copenhagen, Denmark).
