ENGAGE.EU - Let’s go beyond borders

Societal outreach: innovate beyond borders

We want to reinforce the societal outreach of European universities by enabling our learners, researchers and other stakeholders to act as responsible European citizens who have a positive impact on society. To make this happen we aim to create new ways to actively engage with society, so that societal challenges are well-addressed in our education and research, and – with that - our return to the world.

With challenged-based learning we enable the interaction, collaboration and co-creation of new knowledge and solutions by researchers and learners, together with external stakeholders. 

Are you ready to tackle European challenges with an international interdisciplinary team? Then step up and innovate beyond borders.
