Conference Future Governance Models of the European Universities

5th May 2022

Brussels, Belgium

One of the main goals of the European Universities Initiative is to establish transnational alliances of higher education institutions from across the EU that share a long-term strategy focussed on sustainability, excellence, inclusiveness, mobility and European values. One of the main challenges to be addressed by these alliances concerns the definition of governance and management structures, not only during the pilot period but also in the long run. Although a variety of models have already been implemented inside the existing alliances, several issues remain to be clarified, specially outside the alliances and related with their legal statute in the European arena for education and research transformation. 

To discuss these issues and further deepen the reflection around the European Universities Initiative, the FilmEU alliance is organising a conference entitled “Future Governance models of the European Universities” that will take place in Brussels, Belgium on the 5th of May 2022.

 

Call for proposals

This conference intends to bring together different stakeholders around the European Universities Initiative and to promote an open debate about governance models and management structures of the future European Universities, and the challenges and problems associated with their implementation.

- European Universities Initiative
