Together with students from Hong Kong, Kyoto, London, Siegen, Singapore, Taipei, Tokyo and Zurich they work on cross-disciplinary projects. The summer schools are organized by Shared Campus, a cooperation platform for international education formats and research networks launched by seven higher arts education institutions.

London
On August 8, 2022, four students from the master Applied Museum and Heritage Studies (AMHS) of the Reinwardt Academy and one student from the Master in Art Education jumped in the deep end when they started the summer school Rivers/Socially Engaged Arts. This summer school focuses on the themes of decolonization, rivers and care. The summer school has a hybrid format: the first week the students worked together online, and from 15 to 25 August on location at Chelsea College of Arts, part of University of the Arts (UAL) in London. On Thursday 25 August, six study groups, with students from Singapore, Kyoto, Tokyo, Taiwan, Zurich, London and Amsterdam, presented their projects in Cookhouse, a presentation room at Chelsea College of Arts in central London. Gabriela Acosta Camacho, teacher of the Master of Arts Education, and Menno Welling, head of the Master of AMHS, were part of the international group of teachers of the summer school.

Since 15 August, four students from the Pop Music Department of the Conservatorium van Amsterdam (CvA) have been working at the Zürcher Hochschule der Künste (ZHdK) in Zurich, in teams with students from Hong Kong, London, Siegen, Singapore, Tokyo and Zurich. In the summer school programme they focus on crypto currency network based art/NFT's in relation to pop music. From CvA, teacher Blanka Pesja and study leader of the Pop Music department Jack Pisters supervise the summer school in Zurich.
