Coffee and colleagues

Page reviewed:  09/09/2025

Try something new and join our Randomised Coffee Trial. If you joined before - join again and meet new people. SLU Global has been running the coffe trials for some years now and it is open for all SLU's staff.

How does it work?

  1. Sign up below.
  2. You will be paired with an SLU colleague.
  3. Agree on a suitable day and time.
  4. Meet on campus (or virtually) for a 30-minutes coffee or tea and talk. about your work, or anything else that comes up…

Potential effects

  • Broaden your SLU network
  • Get new friends
  • Coffee or tea!

During previous coffee trials, colleagues have experienced that it can sometimes result in new collaborations and joint projects, and sometimes just a nice break and an extension of networks.

How do I join?

We ususally have the coffee trials two to three times per year. There is no date set for next time.
Keep an eye out for the next coffee trial!

About SLU's global network

The network is open for all staff and PhD students at SLU who are involved or interested in global development and collaboration with low-income countries. The network is coordinated by SLU Global. Our hopes are to increase the contact between SLU colleagues and to promote internal collaboration and multidisciplinarity.
