6. A look into the future
● One of the few certainties in this moment
of uncertainty is that the future of learning will be
even more digital
● As OOF universities sharing our experience and knowledge, is the
best way to contribute to the Digital Agenda for Europe and
accompanying our European HE systems in leveraging the full
potential of OOF learning
● There is no better way to do this than in collaboration with other
universities and through networks like EADTU
