EUTOPIA Communities
Born out of the EUTOPIA 2050 initiative, Connected Learning Communities (CLCs) are thematically coherent hubs that connect academic staff and students across our EUTOPIA partners. They regularly organise cross-university activities for students. CLCs enable staff to exchange knowledge and resources with partners, and add value to the student experience by providing opportunities for at-home internationalisation. By participating in some selected activities of the CLCs, Warwick students can also earn points for their Warwick Award.
The new Integrated Connected Communities (CCs) are a product of the EUTOPIA More action and combine learning and research. Similarly to the CLCs, they are centred around a specific theme or themes. They provide an opportunity for academics across EUTOPIA to do research together and to add value to their respective curricula by organising joint activities for their students.
There are 30 EUTOPIA Connected Learning Communities and 10 Integrated Connected Communities (plus 10 new ones joining soon). Warwick leads or is a participating member in twenty-four communities. Academics can join a CLC/CC to work and exchange resources with partner institutions.
If you are interested in getting involved, please contact the EUTOPIA Local Facilitator, Dr Mélina Delmas: melina.delmas@warwick.ac.uk
