EURESTRA’s understanding of responsible transformation
Responsible transformation in European higher education includes student, staff and faculty training as well as the overall campus and societal ecosystems. It refers to multiple concepts, activities and processes and comprises notably the following transformative fields of engagement in HE: Societal responsibility of HEIs including International Higher Education for Society (IHES) focusing on the Social Mission of Universities (SMU) as well as the Green transition and digital transformation of HE, its ecosystems and societies, an ethical framework of historical and cultural multidimensionality including the negotiation of a responsible decolonization of HE.
EURESTRA addresses a global transformation and sees itself as a forum for responsible change in Europe. It wants to be a Higher Education Platform for exchange across borders and continents. EURESTRA aims to provide a comprehensive perspective on Europe's interwovenness with the world, especially with Africa, in the context of challenging global transformations. The 12 Partners will develop joint interdisciplinary programmes among themselves and with selected higher education institutions in our global academic network with advanced formats, innovative pedagogical approaches and pioneering methodologies in education and research. All activities will respond to the increasing demand for sustainability with a focus on diversity and inclusion.
The partners are already connected through joint programmes and activities, such as Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees, Joint PhD and Double Degree Programmes, Blended Intensive Programmes as well as student and staff mobility.
