From Vision to Action: Strengthening European University Alliances for Greater Impact
On 11 September 2025, the European Parliament adopted resolution 2025/2036(INI), “A new vision for the European Universities alliances.”
During this event, we will explore what this resolution and other developments over the last year mean in practice for European University Alliances and for Dutch universities of applied sciences (UASs). You will engage with colleagues from various alliances to share experiences and co-create next steps.
The keynote will explore how European University Alliances can move from their current pioneering phase toward greater strategic integration and impact. Drawing on research, interviews, and organizational models, the keynote will:
- Highlight the added value and current challenges of alliances.
- Provide insights into embedding alliances within institutions.
- Offer practical perspectives on governance, collaboration structures, and strategic development.
The keynote will be followed up with the breakout session “Building the Roadmap for Alliances”. In addition, there are various topics you can discuss in the other breakout sessions, see list below.
