📰 "The #EuropeanUniversities initiative created alliances with big goals, but they must also deal with a complex funding landscape. Five years in, the team from Una Europa describes what their first-hand experiences have taught them about achieving the alliance’s long-term vision." 🙏We were delighted to share our experience navigating the complex world of funding streams for European Universities alliances in an article published last week by the European University Association as part of their 'Expert Voices' series. In the article, Una Europa's Sophia Karner and KU Leuven's Mariet Vriens take us through the lay of the land, explaining how we in Una Europa have leveraged funding sources from different levels to achieve our goals, including: 💶European programmes 🌍National and regional co-funding 🏫Institutional resource 🧩Over the last five years, our experience navigating these diverse funding streams have taught us to think creatively, putting together different pieces into one Una Europa puzzle. We look forward to tackling this ongoing challenge as we continue to shape our vision for a #UniversityOfTheFuture, working with funders to ensure these pieces fit together in flexible and complimentary ways to support the long-term vision for European Universities. 💭Hear from Sophia and Mariet: https://lnkd.in/e4tsUw4f #WeAreUnaEuropa

🎯 The first crop of #EuropeanUniversities alliances have transitioned from lofty declarations to tangible achievements, says Rector Luc Sels of KU Leuven, coordinating partner of Una Europa's rollout project, Una.Futura. But as we round the 5-year mark, what does the future hold for alliances? 3 key takeaways from Luc Sels's opinion piece, published today by Times Higher Education: 🔵 Alliances must continue to build trust between governments and policymakers, even as some EU member states pursue policies that hinder openness 🔵 Research-intensive alliances have a critical role to play in driving R&I-fuelled productivity growth and resilience, as highlighted by the Draghi report, by pooling their strengths and resources 🔵A robust long-term strategy is needed for research-intensive alliances, including funding mechanisms designed to foster transnational ecosystems for knowledge, research and innovation Read in full at Times Higher Education 👉 https://lnkd.in/eWWk93bp #WeAreUnaEuropa

Marianna offers us a fascinating glimpse into the truly interdisciplinary nature of her research and how involvement in Una-Her-Doc Transnational Research Team 2: Heritage and the digitisation of society has opened up opportunities for her as an early-career researcher.
