EUNIS Rectors’23 Conference is cancelled

We regret to announce that the EUNIS Board and the University of Bergen have decided to cancel the EUNIS Rectors Conference, planned for 10—12 May 2023, in Bergen, Norway.

Our sector, and especially university Rectors and Board members, are currently very much focused on responding to geo-political and economic developments, inevitably limiting their opportunity to attend events like the Rectors’ Conference. This realization has led to decision to cancel the EUNIS Rectors’ Conference 2023.

We have had a lot of interest in, and feedback on, the event. We hope that providing alternatives in terms of timing and format will better meet the needs of the intended audience this year.

We will offer an enhanced strategic strand at our annual Congress in Vigo (14-16 June) and also provide several forthcoming leadership events with partners.

We hope to see you again soon!
