Shaping the Future of European Higher Education: UNINOVIS at EAIE Glasgow 2026
Between the conversations, the coffee, and the crowds, the EAIE 2026 conference in Glasgow brought together higher education leaders and innovators to explore new possibilities of international collaboration.
UNINOVIS is shaping a new, more flexible and international approach to learning
The future of learning may be far more flexible than we traditionally imagine. Different institutions, diverse learning experiences, and accumulated competences can become part of a single individual learning journey.

Data for L.I.F.E.
Data has been called the new uranium, which can be used for better or worse. Like uranium, data is valuable and must be treated with care and diligence. This is a new opportunity for European excellence, so that current and future stakeholders can understand, use and protect data, through policy, development and business strategies.
The overall objective of UNINOVIS - Data for L.I.F.E. is to build up an alliance of eight higher education institutions, distributed all over Europe. The alliance wants to combine its expertise to strongly improve capacities and skills to understand, analyse, manage, use and safeguard data in the EU.
