    The Right Moment. A Symposium on Kairotic Energies (Brussels, 18-19 Oct 18) University Foundation, Egmontstraat 11, 1000 Brussels, Oct 18–19, 2018 Registration deadline: Sep 30, 2018 Annelies Vogels “The Greek term kairós expresses an idea of ‘grasping the right moment’, which travelled through art, literature, and philosophy. And even today, it is central to debates over, for example, time management. Combining perspectives from classical reception studies and iconology, this ongoing project at KU Leuven (2017-2021) is about the reception of kairós in the visual medium from antiquity to the Renaissance. How was the notion of kairós visualized in images throughout time, from antiquity to the early modern era? And more specifically, how did text and image work together to transform the notion of kairós in various contexts?” The attending speakers from Belgium, Germany, France, Israel, Croatia, The Netherlands, Roma- nia, The United Kingdom, The United States, and Switzerland have not only been selected on the basis of their interdisciplinary skills in the field; but equally because of their distinctive contribu- tion to the method of iconology and visual anthropology. Many among them are key influencers on, among other things, the importance of the Humanities in terms of peace process work, ecology, and the relationship between Eastern and Western civil- izations.

    KU LEUVEN JAARVERSLAG 2018 Inleiding De Vlaamse universiteiten leggen elk jaar een verslag van hun activiteiten voor aan de overheid. Als financierende instantie wil de overheid namelijk kunnen opvolgen welk beleid de universiteiten met de door haar verstrekte middelen ontwikkelen en wat de resultaten hiervan zijn. Dit jaarverslag is opgesteld volgens het decretaal voorgeschreven schema. Het jaarverslag wordt voorafgegaan door een meer op synthese gericht uitvoeringsverslag. Hierin brengen we een overzicht van de belangrijkste beleidsrealisaties en belichten we een aantal kerncijfers. Per beleidsdomein wijzen we op de belangrijkste actielijnen. Deze aanpak laat de Inrichtende Overheid toe op een adequate manier haar taak van toezicht uit te oefenen. De Raad van Bestuur is verheugd met de positieve resultaten die in dit jaarverslag voorgesteld worden. De leden van onze universitaire gemeenschap, die voor deze positieve resultaten zorgen, verdienen dan ook onze welgemeende gelukwensen. Met de impulsen die uitgaan van een vernieuwd strategisch beleidsplan willen we ons wapenen om nog beter te doen waar we goed in zijn: onderwijs, onderzoek en innovatie, ten diensten van mens en maatschappij.

One part of this challenge is a financial task, as the sustainability of the current pension systems in many European countries is under scrutiny. Societal and financial costs of ageing are steadily rising, and even intergenerational cohesion may be threatened. But the process of population ageing is complex. Elder people live differently or are treated otherwise depending on the country they live in. The policy system and the social cohesion are both quite diverse in every country.

  • Press Release
    Press Release Making the University of the Future a reality Una Europa officially kicks off 1EUROPE On 22nd and 23rd January 2020, the UNA Europa University Alliance Europe kicked off its flagship project 1EUROPE. Funded under the first Erasmus+ Call for European Universities, 1EUROPE aims to launch a living laboratory to develop future university models that are both replicable and scalable. Hosted at the premises of the Flemish government, the public kick-off on 22nd January was opened by Luc Sels, Rector of KU Leuven, the coordinating university. Luc Sels set the scene by framing the dimensions of the new collective endeavor: “UNA Europa is becoming a true powerhouse in Europe, an Alliance of 8 comprehensive very strong leading research-intensive universities with global reputation… Collectively, the networks stands for over half a million in student and staff population, and if you take into account the online learners, we number in the millions.” The kick-off event reflects UNA Europa’s commitment to inclusiveness from the outset, as Luc Sels pointed out: “This is not only about us… We want strong external stakeholder involvement from the very beginning.” In her keynote speech, Themis Christophidou, Director-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture at the European Commission, highlighted the potential of universities to act as “springboard helping Europe to become future proof. It is by coming together in teams across disciplines, countries and languages that talented students, researchers and academics will be able to devise solutions to our pressing societal needs.” To promote an interactive debate between the panel and the audience, the core of the event was arranged as a fishbowl debate.
