The nomadic oases and expeditions


EXPEDITION
The Nomadic University offers three expeditions each containing three oases.
The three expeditions aim to reflect upon certain given topics or perspectives through art

OASIS
An oasis is an intensive four-day session including work shops, lectures, panel debates, art events and other activities.
Each oasis will be held on different locations interacting with local communities on local perspectives.
