International Students Day

International Students’ Day is celebrated each year on 17 November to honour the bravery and resilience of students who stood for their rights during World War II. Over time, it has grown into a global tribute, highlighting the diverse experiences, contributions, and unique challenges faced by international students worldwide.

This year, in celebration of International Students’ Day, we’re delighted to present our Intercultural Recipe Share—a special collection of favourite recipes and the stories behind them, reflecting the flavours of home for many students here at Exeter.

View the collection here: Recipe Share

We hope this collection of recipes brings inspiration to your kitchen and a chance to connect with the cultures and traditions behind each dish. Whether you’re exploring a new flavour or recreating a beloved taste from home, may this collection be a reminder of the unity and diversity that International Students’ Day honours.

Though the initial submission period has closed, we’re excited to keep growing this collection! If you’d like to contribute, choose a recipe that holds meaning for you—whether it’s a family classic, childhood favourite, or cultural staple. Prepare it, share it with friends or flatmates, and upload a photo and description through the Recipe Share Form.

Happy International Students Day!
