Arqus Coordinator participates as keynote speaker at UNITA Alliance event

Dorothy Kelly, Arqus Coordinator, is taking part in UNITA Week 2025, the most important annual event held by the UNITA European University Alliance. The Public University of Navarra (UPNA) in Pamplona, northern Spain, is hosting this event between 25 and 28 February.

More than 150 people, representing the ten UNITA partner universities and its two associate universities, are meeting for three intense days of work to determine the level of progress of the project and establish future strategies for their Alliance. In parallel, two student representatives from each partner university are meeting in the UNITA Student Assembly. The UNITA Week 2025 will include a cultural visit to the medieval towns of Olite and Ujué.

Arqus Coordinator Dorothy Kelly is participating as a keynote speaker regarding the implementation of the European Degree. The Arqus Alliance is a firm advocate for joint European higher education, as well as greater student and staff mobility. The Arqus position paper on the European Degree was published last October, aiming to contribute to the policy debate on the European Degree and the European Degree label at a crucial point in the debate in the light of the Higher Education Package published on 27 March 2024. It is founded on Arqus’ collective experiences, challenges and shared ambitions.
