SUMMARY:CHARM ON #9: Operating Joint Virtual Offices in a European Universi
 ty – Behind the Scenes
DESCRIPTION:Returning after the summer break\, this ninth CHARM ON session 
 turns the spotlight on an essential pillar of transnational cooperation: t
 he Joint Virtual Offices (JVOs).Behind every cross-border initiative lies 
 a distributed administrative engine. Drawing on grounded experiences suppo
 rting the Master’s in Global Challenges for Sustainability\, in this ses
 sion we will delve into the day-to-day realities of coordinating CHARM-EU'
 s flagship international programme across borders. Our panellists will ref
 lect on navigating diverse institutional frameworks\, supporting students 
 across mobility phases\, and aligning workflows within a multilingual\, in
 tercultural team.Rather than treating administration as merely an operatio
 nal backdrop\, the discussion explores how shared virtual offices bridge n
 ational systems to turn the vision of a European University into sustainab
 le everyday practice.  Date: Monday\, 28 September  Time: 13:00–14:
 00 CET Format: Online panel discussion (live stream + sound recording av
 ailable afterwards) Join here: Teams Privacy notice: Please find the 
 privacy notice here.This event is open to all members of CHARM-EU universi
 ties — educators\, researchers\, students\, and professional staff — a
 nd to anyone curious about seed funding educational innovation in higher e
 ducation. No registration required.Each CHARM ON features a moderated pane
 l with voices from across our university community (educators\, researcher
 s\, students\, and support staff) sharing concrete experiences that bring 
 CHARM-EU’s approaches to life. Together\, they connect principles to pra
 ctice\, point to good examples in our Service Portfolio\, and signpost tr
 ainings and follow-up opportunities offered by the Alliance.CHARM ON will 
 take place on the last Monday of each month at 13:00 CET\, offering a regu
