What do you get up for in the morning? Are you energised when you can help other people? Or does your heart beat faster when you work for our planet? Are you – like so many others – looking for your personal motivation in life?
Take the test and discover your purpose!
You’ll find out whether you’re more of a People, Planet or Peace type, or a Prosperity, Partnership or Poincaré sort.
An out-of-the-box thinker. Allergic to unreasonableness. To you, a symphony is not complete without a critical note. Maybe it’s time to really make yourself heard in the multifaceted, critical-thinking VUB community. In any case, we’re ready for your voice!
Looking for more inspiration about your purpose in life? Or got the urge to take action right away? On the webpage of The World Needs You you’ll find inspiring movies, stories of VUB students and dozens of projects you can get involved in. Good luck!
You prefer to let your creativity run free, and you’re full of entrepreneurial spirit. Maybe it’s time to put those strengths to work. Time to raise your middle finger to poverty and inequality and help build a more prosperous world. Food for thought...
What makes you strong? Teamwork! And we totally get it. VUB may be a strong university, but it doesn’t work alone. To achieve the People, Planet, Prosperity and Peace sustainability goals, the university is looking for partners. Every bit of support counts, because your partnership also increases the impact on the world. You really make a difference.
Nothing makes you angrier than injustice. You believe that the pen is mightier than the sword. And we at VUB are only too happy to provide your ink, so you can join the fight for a fairer world.
You want to make the world go round differently and help build the (green) future. You care about biodiversity, climate, air quality and animal rights. Maybe your purpose lies in making our world more sustainable, step by step? Start with yourself.
Your family, friends and the people around you always come first. You also empathise with people you don’t know. People who live in another city, another country or another continent: you care about their well-being and happiness. Their situation is close to your heart. Maybe your purpose lies in supporting these people when they need help? Food for further thought!
