The European University Association is organising an event on the upcoming European Strategy for Universities and its interplay with national reform processes. It will bring together university representatives, European policymakers, representatives of national ministries and other stakeholders in higher education and research. The objective of the event is to discuss how European policies and programmes interact with national reform processes, pushing forward system transformation as we head towards 2030.

Topics for discussion at the event will be:

• how to achieve synergies between higher education, research and innovation at the different levels of policies, programmes and practice and how to better connect those;
• how to foster recovery and resilience and use European funding to support reforms and build capacity for the future;
• how to enable deeper transnational collaboration and remove barriers to allow universities to be innovative.

COVID-19 measures permitting, the event will be streamed from the Stanhope Hotel in Brussels, on 27 January, from 14.00-17.30 CET. Prior registration is required and participants are asked to clearly specify whether they wish to attend onsite or follow the event online.
