Parallel sessions (good practices)
UNI-SET aims to highlight good practices of universities to facilitate mutual learning and exchange. The organisers are looking for projects and activities with an innovative approach to research, education, training, innovation and/or collaboration. Preference will be given to activities with a multidisciplinary and/or collaborative approach.
UNI-SET therefore welcomes university contributions for Parallel sessions which intend to present:
- Good practices and case studies of innovative, multidisciplinary and collaborative research or education actions in relation to renewables technology and renewables integration;
- Institutional energy initiatives cutting across the activities of different departments, faculties or centres dedicated to energy.
Presenters will be given 10-15 minutes for their presentation and are encouraged to use a story-telling approach that allows the audience to learn from the experience of the presenter.
