VUB DSh Network

The EUTOPIA Week is an opportunity to bring together all the key actors participating in the EUTOPIA project and offers a week full of interactive in person and online events, workshops, conferences, forums, seminars and many more interesting activities to the EUTOPIA alliance and beyond. Harvesting the alliances and synergies already created throughout the network, and welcoming EUTOPIA’s new member universities, UPF has organised a EUTOPIA Week that is focused on the future: not only of universities, but the humanity as a whole. The main theme of UPF’s EUTOPIA Week is Planetary Wellbeing, as defined in the concept paper and fostered by UPF as its Institutional Framework. Broader than the concept of (social and environmental) sustainability, ambitious in nature and subject to many diverse manifestations in the university environment, the Planetary Wellbeing Institutional Framework represents a practical expression of UPF’s commitment to sustainable leadership role in the society and simultaneously follows the sustainability spirit, actions and aspirations of EUTOPIA.

On 24 November 2021, 15:30 - 16:30 there is an Online open session: Career seminar for PhD-students in the Humanities.
