Sense-making: Connecting internal currents in European Universities Initiative alliances

Challenges emerging in the current stage of the European Universities Initiative require profound reflection on the sense of the initiative. Effective communication and real engagement of internal stakeholders at higher education institutions are essential to reach a deep transformation.
