It is with deep sorrow that I share the news of the passing of Prof. Josep Rom, rector of my university (www.url.edu), a few hours after a public event we shared.
Not just a colleague, but a good friend; and above all a good person. RIP.
My condolences to his family.

And many thanks for the opportunity to share the @eua.eu analysis and recommendations regarding the European Universities Initiative. Its transformative potential is huge, and it is imperative that the Initiative succeeds! Europe cannot afford for it to fail.

Two “away days” for welcoming new Board members, and to thank colleagues which term finished recently.
It has been a great opportunity for an organized handover between teams and Board champions, and for “looking beyond the next corner”, in the year we are reviewing our strategy.

Nothing is more powerful that seeing our planet from space to realize that there won’t be any future if we don’t act #sustainably. From the very small daily things, to the bigger projects.
