Take a look at a couple of photos from the WCMM Retreat 2023 that took place at the end of May, 2023. Since the first edition, the WCMM-LiU Retreat has taken place at Sandvik Gård.

On May 29-30, all WCMM affiliates gathered for two days filled with various group activities. Two guests from LiU, Sara Liin and Marcin Szczot, gave great talks and they also acted as judges and awarded prizes during the "Poolside Crazy Project Presentation" activity.
