Description
The first Peer Learning Workshop will be hosted by Centre Val Loire in Orléans (France) with the objective of sharing HESS case studies' approaches and action-research lessons learnt. The JRC will present the content of the HESS Handbook (upcoming) that provides six elements to reflect on: HE systems, HE careers, the EDP, governance, funding and monitoring. Four regions, Centre-Val de Loire, Navarre, Puglia and North-East Romania, will share the opportunities and obstacles in building regional partnerships in the context of smart specialisation.
The Peer Learning Workshops will make the most out of participatory methods so that the maximum amount of co-created knowledge can be harvested, with the objective of:
- Learning about the experiences of others who are trying to build partnerships in the context of Smart Specialisation.
- Receiving feedback from other regions and Higher Education institutions that can help strengthen the regional partnerships and activities.
- Understanding how EU policies and funding programmes can support the partnerships, including the proposed frameworks post 2020.
- Building a Community of Practice at EU level that can explore cooperation opportunities.
The event will bring together two European Commission Directorate Generals, national/regional public authorities managing S3 and higher education institutions interested in promoting university collaborations for regional growth.
