Main Topics

The Board of Rectors Meeting is an important part of the exchange between the partner universities and makes it possible to address a wide variety of topics. It also provides an opportunity for groups to engage in conversation who might not otherwise have the chance to discuss issues with each other. However, the Board of Rectors Meeting 2026 will focus on the following three main topics:

Digital Infrastructure

Digitalisation and networking will allow us to work and communicate more effectively in the future. The Agora platform will assist us in this process. Therefore, the Board of Rectors 2026 is dedicated to digital transformation and digital infrastructure.

The road ahead

With the new proposal, EU GREEN has taken another step forward. Now it is time to discuss the future and consider all possibilities and opportunities for EU GREEN so that we are prepared for what lies ahead.

Legal Entity

Discussion on whether a legal entity should be introduced for the EU GREEN Alliance and what steps are necessary to achieve this.
