WORKSHOPS

Research for Impact in Digital Innovation

As the twin transformation—combining digitalization and sustainability—accelerates, organizations face increasing pressure to adapt. Drawing on insights from the European Digital4Sustainability initiative, we integrate theory and practice to emphasize the importance of building a digitally competent and sustainability-oriented workforce as a foundation for organizational resilience. This interactive workshop leverages Twin Transformation pathways (Aagaard & Vanhaverbeeke, 2024) to explore the skills and competencies professionals and organizations need to navigate this shift effectively. After a brief introduction to core concepts and frameworks, participants will engage in a hands-on exercise to assess and reflect on their own and their organization’s twin transformation readiness. 

 

SuMoS - Strengthening the Ecosystem for Sustainable Student Mobility

 

The SuMoS Project – Strengthening the Ecosystem for Sustainable Student Mobility, co-funded by the Erasmus+ program (KA220-HED – Partnerships for Cooperation in Higher Education), aims to enhance the institutional framework for strategic, structured, and sustainable collaboration between higher education institutions in the field of student mobility. This will be achieved through the development and purposeful use of green practices, digital tools, and curriculum comparison approaches.

Partners from five European countries have laid the foundations for the Institutional Student Mobility Ecosystem (ISME). To further develop and expand this ecosystem, workshops will be organized in each partner country, bringing together key stakeholders, including Vice-deans for International Cooperation, International Relations Officers and practitioners, Erasmus Coordinators, and academic advisors. The goal of these workshops is to exchange experiences, discuss challenges in student mobility, and foster collaboration and innovative solutions.
