‘European Universities as the Basis of Innovative Europe’ – was the theme of the 1st Conference of European Universities that took place on 15 May 2023 in Warsaw. It is a brand new initiative organised bearing in mind alliances bringing together universities within the Erasmus+ programme, and the Transform4Europe Alliance is a part of this group. The event was a chance to exchange experiences and strengthen collaboration in terms of education, research and innovation across the entire Europe.
Participants engaged in discussion panels on, e.g. challenges faced currently by European universities. The event also featured workshops in, e.g. micro-credentials and possibilities of financing activities from the Horizon Europe programme and Erasmus+.
