Big moment for higher education: UNESCO’s 2026 Transforming Higher Education roadmap names community engagement as a core mission, alongside teaching and research. Glad to be contributing to this agenda through the SPACE project.
🌍 Our #impact continues! This year, the 9 universities of the EMERGE European university alliance are applying the #TEFCEToolbox — an institutional self-reflection framework for #CommunityEngagement that we developed in 2020. More about the Toolbox: lnkd.in/dt3PdbuG
This academic year we’ll be supporting the 13 member universities of #EUNICoast European university alliance to co-create action plans for community engagement, using the tools of the Community-engagement.eu platform. An exciting journey ahead! 🚀
