African-European collaboration across academic missions is a prominent feature of CIVIS. The panel discussion with high-level representatives from our six associate member institutions from Africa sheds light on their visions and priorities in our partnerships. It also explores how to further unlock the potentials of our collaboration both for the universities involved and the wider African-European science partnership. The audience is invited to actively contribute to this discussion.

  • Briefing paper: Building a bridge towards Africa and the Mediterranean Region (2021)

    Building partnerships with African and Mediterranean universities outside Europe is an importantstrategic aim of CIVIS and one of its distinct features as a European University alliance (1). By 2022, the end of CIVIS’ “fabric phase”, our alliance seeks to win at least one partner institution in the target regions for each of its established thematic Hubs (2). This implies initiating some first joint pilot projects as well as to prepare and adopt longer-term strategic partnership agreements between CIVIS and partner universities.

  • Sensing Our Environment Together: Citizen Sciences for Climate and Air Quality (Workshop Report, 2025)

    The workshop “Sensing Our Environment Together: Citizen Sciences for Climate and Air Quality” (30 September–1 October 2025) brought together academics, associations, and local stakeholders committed to addressing climate and air‑quality challenges through participatory research. Designed as a prototype for future CIVIS Open Labs, the event fostered dialogue between diverse actors, encouraged the exchange of methodologies, and highlighted the value of inclusive, science-based action. By convening experts and communities across different territories, the workshop aimed to enhance transnational collaboration and strengthen the collective capacity to address environmental issues.
