What’s coming up this week? Every coming sunday, Lundagård’s international edition will guide you through the coming days. Suzanna Törnroth start off the tour.
Lund is known for many things but one thing that stands out is probably its festive social atmosphere. Lundagård seeks high and low from a week to week basis to give you a list of interesting activities worth catching- be is musically, recreationally or socially. So keep your eyes peeled and get with the programme!
Documentary: Interested in food, its production and related issues? Lunds Social Sciences Union will be screening its fortnightly documentary night on Tuesday, the 20st of November called “Farm to Fork”, concerning “a local Nepalese initiative with the aim of raising awareness around the current lack of safety in the country’s food chain.” This screening is unlike no other, with Project leader Ashish Maharjan will be present to elaborate on the initiative and the obstacles faced in the making of the movie. Be sure not to miss this!

Nation: For those music addicts, don’t Lund’s nation life have a treat for you! Faye, Sweden’s celebrated synth-pop songstress, has entered the limelight once more. The songstress faded out of the music scene after producing hits like “Us Against the World” and “I must not chase the boys” which took the girl group, Play, into the U.S. Billboard chart.
