The 14th edition of FISU Forum will be held in 2018 in Krasnoyarsk between August 6 and 10. The main theme for the Forum is “Student sport — springboard for innovative leadership” and is organised by the 2019 Winter Universiade Organising Committee and the Russian Students Sport Union (RSSU).



FISU Forum is held every two years and brings together students and official represented by the FISU Member Associations. Until February 15, 2018, FISU is gathering interest and candidatures for host of the 2020 FISU Forum.
