For Ioannis K. Panoussis, universities have a responsibility to make knowledge available and impactful for society, especially its most vulnerable members. Here, he highlights two of the Catholic University of Lille’s projects to serve its local community as a humanist and socially-engaged university.
When universities struggle to embed internal collaboration, it is often misdiagnosed as a culture issue, but is more likely due to a lack of strategic alignment. Organisational design, incentives and leadership can help higher education leaders to rethink how institutional connectedness is created and sustained.
Our work is rooted in our vision of strong universities for Europe and guided by our mission to support our members in excelling in service to society.
EUA represents over 850 members, including individual universities as well as the bodies that represent them at national level (i.e. national university associations/rectors’ conferences).
