CHARM-EU Days 2020

How can the European Universities initiative contribute to supporting the European Green Deal?

Context, agenda and materials of the first CHARM-EU Annual Conference on 23-24 November 2020.

Climate change and environmental degradation are an existential threat to Europe and the world. In addition, the world is facing unexpected challenges caused by the COVID-19 scenario. To overcome these challenges, the European Union (EU) developed a new growth strategy: the European Green Deal for the EU and its citizens. As an active supporter of the European Green Deal plan, CHARM-EU’s first annual conference focused on how can the European Universities initiative contribute to supporting the European Green Deal, exploring the future of the European Higher Education landscape and its role in addressing complex and interlinked societal challenges. The event was a unique opportunity for participants to reflect and discuss the potential of European Universities in shaping the present and the future of our society by reinforcing its commitment with the EU’s Green Deal action plan.
