general information
European Universities Alliances are emerging as a key higher‑education player in support of the EU Competitiveness Compass. Sixty‑five alliances now link more than 560 universities, embedding joint degrees, seamless mobility, shared research infrastructures and non-academic partnerships into single “inter‑operable campuses.”
CHARM‑EU, as one of the very first European university alliances, offers a living demonstration of what is already possible. In six years, the Alliance cleared cross‑border accreditation hurdles, pioneered a challenge‑based learning model, awarded one of Europes first fully joint mater’s degree by an Alliance, and contributed evidence to the Council process through the European Degree pilot ED‑AFFICHE.
The 2025 CHARM-EU Annual Conference will bring together alliances, universities leadership, policymakers, and societal actors, to present, discuss and translate high‑level discussions into actionable initiatives.
Sessions will cover topics such as:
- Professional development and Union of Skills
- Talent attraction and mobility
- Inclusion and competitiveness
- Interoperability between European universities
- Transdisciplinarity, internationalisation and regional development
Venue: Bar Beton, Pythagoraslaan 101, Utrecht, NL.

Format: On-site with partial live streaming. The plenary sessions will be live streamed on the CHARM-EU YouTube Channel. On-site with plenary sessions live streamed on the CHARM-EU YouTube Channel. The workshops and afternoon sessions are designed as on-site sessions.
Speech-to-Text Reporters provide real-time captioning. Their expertise is essential to the Conference to cater to the greatest level of attendees’ access and participation needs. Inclusion by design means designing the environment from the beginning to the greatest extent of users (preventive) rather than a retrospective approach (fixing the environment afterwards). The hybrid feature is in line with the core values of CHARM-EU. The Speech-to-Text can be followed here.

Open Science in European University Alliances: Pathways to Competitiveness
Open Science (open access, FAIR data, citizen science and transparent research workflows) has been a flagship of the European Research Area. Yet the EU’s renewed Competitiveness Agenda raises urgent questions. This workshop will showcase progress across European University Alliances to illustrate the momentum already under way addressing questions such as: Can openness and market‑driven innovation reinforce each other? How can university alliances translate their Open Science policies and practices into concrete pathways to competitiveness for Europe?
From Metrics to Merit: Reforming Research Assessment & Academic Careers to Power Europe’s Competitiveness
Europe’s new Competitiveness Deal positions world-class science and skilled talent as the Union’s next “engine room.” Yet traditional, metric-driven research assessment often undervalues open science, teamwork and societal impact— contributions the EU now needs. This workshop zooms in on how European University Alliances can adopt— and scale— such reforms to sharpen their competitive edge.
Unlocking Potential: How Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Drive Competitiveness in Higher Education
In a global race for talent, research excellence, and societal relevance, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are no longer optional—they are strategic essentials. For CHARM-EU, inclusion is not just a value; it’s a pillar of its identity as an innovative, transnational university model.
This interactive workshop explores how embedding DEI into strategy, governance, and daily operations strengthens institutional performance and reinforces CHARM-EU’s leadership in the European Higher Education Area. Participants will engage in a hands-on activity (role-play) to co-create actionable strategies and leave with practical tools to advance DEI as a driver of excellence, innovation, and social impact. Join us to discover how inclusion, when embedded by design, becomes a competitive advantage in higher education.
Building future-proof skills with alumni: stories and strategies
In an era of rapid transformation and increasing complexity, having future-proof skills—particularly in sustainability—is more important than ever. This interactive workshop will bring together CHARM-EU alumni and conference participants to explore how graduates have transitioned from learning sustainability competencies in the classroom to applying and further developing these skills in their professional lives. The workshop is designed to be dynamic and engaging, creating a space for dialogue, peer learning, and mutual inspiration. Through a combination of icebreakers, speed-dating conversations, and a World Café setup, participants will gain firsthand insights into the real-world application of skills across diverse career paths. Alumni will share concrete examples of how they have utilized their CHARM-EU education in their jobs and have continued to build their professional toolkits.
Transdisciplinarity in Innovation, Internationalisation and Regional Development
This interactive workshop explores how transdisciplinary collaboration between universities and local communities can strengthen territorial attractiveness and contribute to sustainable development. Participants will engage with the core challenges—economic, cultural, environmental, social, and educational—facing local regions, and examine how to connect them through one of CHARM-EU’s key themes: Water, Food, Health, or Energy.
Interoperability in Higher Education, Joining Forces by connecting IT-Systems
CHARM’s IT-team has recently taken large steps forward by connecting its IT ecosystems through a joint platform, developed by SURF, the Dutch national organization for IT in education. Through this platform, users from any of the CHARM institutions can log in with the credentials of their home institution to make use of designated IT-service. In this break-out session, several IT decision makers from the CHARM-EU partner universities will participate in a podium discussion about questions such as: How can interoperability between IT systems make partnerships stronger? What limitations or challenges do we see? How has the Alliance’s work helped the IT decision makers in their own institution?
