On this page, we are happy to share reports, results, and outputs linked to the set-up and implementation of the Alliance. New resources will be added as we reach further milestones, and we hope that they will serve as inspiration and support to other European universities and Alliances to help reach their objectives.

CIVIS micro-credentials. Notes for a challenge-based approach (2023)
In this report, we want to explore to what extent it would be possible to propose a modular educational offer that would reconcile civic engagement with the acquisition of competencies that allow learners to adapt to a (personal, social, occupational) changing context. In order to do so, it is necessary to take into account both the pedagogical particularities of the micro-credentials and the very vision and structure of CIVIS.- Challenged-based approach
