As part of the ECIU Board meeting, participants will discuss joint initiatives in modern education, scientific research, and addressing global social challenges.
The highlight of the event will be the meeting of the Consortium’s Supervisory Board, attended by rectors of member universities, institutional coordinators, representatives of non-governmental organisations, business partners, and student representatives. The agenda will include discussions on the future of ECIU and the development of planned consortium initiatives.
