The second edition of the Forum of European Universities Alliances will take place in Barcelona (Spain) and gather representatives from the university alliances (as EUNICE), the European Commission, the Member States and students.
The Spanish Presidency of the Council of the European Union is promoting the celebration of the 2nd Forum of European University Alliances on 14th and 15th September in Barcelona. The goal is to open up a space for dialogue and exchange of ideas around the most important issues currently affecting European alliances. It will take place in the district of Sant Andreu, at the old Fabra i Coats textile mill, dating from the beginning of the 20th century and used today as a space for creativity.
All the sessions will be hybrid, and you are welcome to attend them online:
You are also welcome to contribute to the discussions by posing written questions:
Since it was first launched in 2017, the European Universities Initiative has wrought 50 alliances, pulling together over 430 higher education institutions from 35 different countries, and a total of 1,700 associate partners. Today it is close to achieving its goal of 60 alliances, covering 500 universities, by mid-2024.
The purpose of establishing long-term strategic alliances between European universities is to promote the identity and values of Europe, as well as excellence and transformation. Thus, from the outset, the Initiative has proposed alliances that quest for innovation and seek to go beyond conventional boundaries.
