The History of ISFiT
The idea of an international student festival in Trondheim originated in 1988. Trondheim has always been a city with great traditions for student commitment and activities, yet some believed that there was room for more. By bringing together students from many different parts of the world, they wanted to create an event that would be both a conference and a festival.
The theme for the very first ISFiT in April 1990 was "A Changing Europe - What are the responsibilities of the students and their universities?". 400 hundred students from 45 countries participated. The following festivals were:
1992 Breaking Communication Barriers
1994 Human Rights
1997 Quality of Life
1999 Solving Conflicts
2001 Global Responsibility
2003 Challenging Attitudes
2005 Education. Why?
ISFiT has grown to become the world's largest thematic student festival with more than 105 countries represented in 2001.
Each festival has presented speakers of high international caliber - among them the student activist Chai Ling, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Director-General of WHO Gro Harlem Brundtland, Dr Klaus Töpfer from the UN and Nobel Laureate Dr. Wangaari Maathai.
At ISFiT, a diversity of young people get the opportunity to meet eachother. The festival is an arena for overcoming cultural, political and religious borderlines, in order to promote tolerance and understanding.
The theme of ISFiT 2007 will be globalization.
