SUMMARY:Reinventing University: the Digital Challenge in Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:Digital transformation in Higher Education (HE) is a major priority for the European Union (EU). In the years to come\, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) will be reconstructed at all levels of their operation. By adopting the Digital Education Action Plan (2021-2027) on 30 September 2020\, the EU targets a high-quality\, accessible and inclusive digital education supporting the Member States’ entry into a digital era. Implementing learning and training have been considered key factors to allow modern societies and economies to face the challenges of globalisation and technological progress. Developing digital skills has become essential in this framework to foster lifelong learning and reduce inequalities. By 2030\, university students worldwide should reach 414 million\, and to meet their needs\, Universities must deliver quality and relevant future-proof skills\, foster diversity and inclusion\, and promote and protect democratic practices\, fundamental rights and academic values (EE.UU 2021/C 66/01). \nYou can find more information here: Reinventing University: the Digital Challenge in Higher Education
