The first COPERNICUS Alliance Online Conference in 2019 was a milestone in bringing people together
in a virtual environment. We collaboratively explored how best to promote transformative learning experiences for sustainability and enhance the quality of higher education.
A CONSTELLATION OF STARS
THIS VIRTUAL CONFERENCE sought to unite people and institutions committed to transforming higher education towards sustainable development. We collaboratively explored how best to promote transformative learning experiences for sustainability and enhance the quality of higher education. We learned how others are dealing with common challenges and support them with your critical insights, creative ideas and practical experiences.
TOPICS
The conference focused on the following higher education for sustainable development topics:
- QUALITY ASSURANCE AND ENHANCEMENT
- TRANSFORMATIVE TEACHING AND LEARNING
- LEADERSHIP FOR CHANGE
- PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
- ASSESSMENT
NOT JUST ANOTHER CONFERENCE

ACTION ORIENTED. Powerful and practice-oriented sessions that go beyond describing theories of change and supporting the generation of experiences during and after the event.
FOCUSED ON "NEXT PRACTICES". Reflecting on what has worked, and on what hasn’t worked and could work better, rather than showcasing best practices.
