D-ChallengHE Research Network

 

The D-ChallengHE HUB, in collaboration with Skillman.eu, has launched a dynamic initiative by establishing interdisciplinary research groups (RN). These groups unite individuals who share common interests, passions, and research objectives, fostering a fertile exchange of knowledge and virtuous collaboration. Key features include:

 

  • Regularly organizing meetings among members.
  • Open participation to all interested individuals.
  • Playing a crucial role in animating the HE research observatory.


Each group is led by one or more coordinators who actively facilitate discussions and collaboration within the group. These research networks are strategically focused to inspire individuals and facilitate effective work on specific topics and meetings are conducted in a well-organized workshop setting, promoting active participation, intellectual debate, and the free exchange of ideas.

Presently, there are seven active groups within the HUB. The platform welcomes the formation of new groups and encourages interested parties to submit a program of activities, along with the names of promoters and brief biographies, as a means to promote inclusivity and expansion within the interdisciplinary research community.
