Interaction of research and education in Universities’ cross-border cooperation

NSPA/Arctic Five event: Synergies of ERA & EEA

Combining European Research Area (ERA) and European Education Area (EEA) plays a central role in the future landscape of European research and education policies. The synergies between higher education and research build strongly on the dual role of universities.

On this online event we will discuss about the ongoing policy process on the synergies of ERA and EEA and what we can learn from the long-standing university cooperation where the interaction of research and education drives the collaboration.
