On 26-27 February,  DIVERSE European Alliance was present at the European Rectors’ Plenary, a high-level meeting organised by the European Commission in Brussels. Representing our alliance, Dr. Rubén Calderón, Rector of Universidad Europea del Atlántico (Spain), and Dr. Mislav Balkovic, Rector of Algebra University (Croatia), participated in strategic discussions on the future of higher education in Europe.

During this high-level meeting, several key issues were discussed, to strengthen the future of inter-university partnerships in a competitive Europe.

We also took the opportunity to meet on-site with coordinators and representatives from all eight alliances holding the Seal of Excellence to explore potential collaborations, recognition opportunities, and sustainability strategies. Our thanks to Gobierno de Cantabria for hosting us in their office in Brussels.
