“Today’s event marks the beginning of a new chapter. Through European Universities, we have together created a before and an after in European Higher Education.” Themis Christophidou

To mark the kick-off of the first 17 European Universities alliances, the European Commission is organising an event on the European Universities Initiative on Thursday 7th November 2019.

On Tuesday 1st October 2019, we celebrate the launch of the CIVIS Alliance, the European Civic University with the partnership of eight leading universities across the Mediterranean and Baltic seas: Aix-Marseille Université (Aix-en-Provence and Marseille, France), National Kapodistrian University of Athens (Athens, Greece), Université libre de Bruxelles (Brussels, Belgium), Universitatea din București (Bucharest, Romania), Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (Madrid, Spain), Sapienza Università di Roma (Rome, Italy), Stockholm University (Stockholm, Sweden) and Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen (Germany)

On June 26, 2019, the European Commission has announced that CIVIS would be one of the first pilot projects for its "European Universities" programme. CIVIS is proud to receive the opportunity to contribute fully to the first phase of construction of this major initiative for the future of the European higher education landscape.

The Department of Lettere et culture moderne of « La Sapienza » Università di Roma is co-organizing a summer school with the Departments of Italian Studies and of History on 8-9 July at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities of Aix-Marseille University in Aix-en-Provence (Schuman campus).
