Amidst a proliferation of initiatives to strengthen Europe’s security and autonomy in critical scientific and technological fields, the openness and resilience of knowledge institutions is ever more topical. On 22 October from 15.00 to 16.30 CEST, the European University Association will convene representatives of member institutions to discuss risk management and mitigation in the face of shifting boundaries between openness and protectionism in science.
With research and innovation as key pillars of Europe’s competitiveness, universities are working with national and European policy makers to ensure the robustness of knowledge production and exchange while being aware of foreign interference risks and threats to ethics and integrity. Therefore, this webinar will be an opportunity to learn about best practices for boosting knowledge security and working with governments to uphold academic freedom and institutional autonomy. Participants will also learn about ways to effectively allocate roles and responsibilities among institutional leaders and individual academics in order to facilitate broad ownership and coordination of security policies across universities.
Speakers
Registrations remain open until the start of the webinar. Please note that this event is reserved for EUA members.
