*Subject:* [OSList] Higher Education Open Space organized by the EU
Good morning Open Spacers:
I have received from a friend this mail that announces a “Higher
Education Open Space” organized by the European Union. He sent this to
me, I think, because EU was adopting "Open Space" and he expected me to
be happy with that.
Here is the mail I have received:
*Campus Europe Higher Education Open Space*

2015, following up the /Council's communiqué after Yerevan/
<http://eucis-lll.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e0ba59dcb487a8983ceda27d9&id=e8bd74d07c&e=3bba19aa9f>
will
provide universities, students and stakeholder representatives an open,
innovative and creative space for discussion on joint approaches to face
these challenges. It also aims to contribute in a concrete way to
the modernisation of higher education and to build alliances to
reinforce the competitiveness and governance of European
universities. It will allow for policy discussions and practical working
sessions through two main events: a conference on the 3rd of November on
how to reach 20% of student mobility by 2020 while maintaining the
quality of mobility flows; an Open Space on the 4th-5th of November
addressing topical issues of universities, students and stakeholders in
the field of the /modernisation agenda.

until 30 September 2015!
<http://eucis-lll.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e0ba59dcb487a8983ceda27d9&id=79c041547d&e=3bba19aa9f>////
/If one looks for the Program
(/http://uni-foundation.eu/higher-education-open-space/conference/) one
finds the Agenda below (after my signature)./
/There are a lot of speakers!!! But even in relation with the sessions
that could be "open": /
/1) The session on /*”Disruptive innovation in the field of student
mobility”**has 4 experts speaking about it (no students as far as I can
see)*
*2) The session of **“Group Discussion” (14:00 - 15:00) **has **4
predefined subjects**:*
·Funding strategies to increase exchanges
·Length matters: 1 semester vs. 1 year abroad
·Ad-hoc partnerships and international consortia
·The increasing importance of QA and recognition of credits
/*3) *The/*Round-table (15:30 - 17:00) **has 2 speakers****(Profs).***
**
*So my questions are:*
*-**Is this Open Space?***
*-**What is the concept of "Open Space" of the European Union?***
*-**Did they get that name (Open Space) from OST facilitators from
Europe or it was only the fact that “Open” is cool (and “Closed” is
awful) and they don’t even know what OST is?***
**
*I would like to have other opinions, especially from European
facilitators more close to the center of Europe (somewhere in the line
from Brussels to Berlin…)*
*Regards and have a nice week end*
**
*Artur*
*(From Portugal, in the Southwest of Europe - or is it in the North of
Africa?)*
