Shaping ChallengeEU’s Digital Future in Offenburg

As part of the ChallengeEU university alliance, representatives from nine European universities, primarily IT leads involved in Work Package 2 (WP2), met at Hochschule Offenburg (Offenburg University of Applied Sciences) to advance discussions on the alliance’s digital infrastructure. WP2 plays a key role in creating the digital backbone of ChallengeEU, enabling collaboration, mobility, and data exchange across partner institutions.

The meeting focused on shaping the platform’s architecture and core functionalities that will steer the alliance over the coming three to four years. Among the priorities are the development of a joint course and mobility catalogue, the launch of the DigitalHub (known as the Digital M.A.R.K.E.T Space) and the integration of AI-powered features. All modules will align with major European digital initiatives, including eduGAIN, Erasmus Without Papers (EWP), ECTS, and the European Student Card.

WP2 is coordinated by South East European University (SEEU), led by Prof. Dr. Mennan Selimi, with co-leadership from Mid Sweden University under Prof. Dr. Niklas Brinkfeldt. SEEU’s IT team — Shefik Osmani, Ahmed Abdullai, and Hamit Kamberi — joined the Offenburg meeting to contribute their expertise to the design of ChallengeEU’s digital platform.

A group of WP2 representatives sit around a conference table at Hochschule Offenburg, working on laptops and listening to a presenter. A screen shows a slide about “WP2 Requirements.” Bottles of water and snacks are placed on the tables.
