EUniWell – European University for Well-Being – is one of 50 European University Alliances selected for financing by the European Commission under the Erasmus+ Program in 2020. Eleven universities are EUniWell members, namely: University of Birmingham (UK), University of Cologne (Germany), University of Florence (Italy), National Institute for Oriental Languages and Civilizations (INALCO) (France), University of Konstanz (Germany), Linnaeus University (Sweden), University of Murcia (Spain), University of Nantes (France), University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain), Semmelweis University (Hungary) and Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (Ukraine). In addition, the Alliance is supported by more than 100 associated partners from all walks of society. Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv joined the Alliance in 2022 and is now an associate partner in the project.
In November 2020, EUniWell launched its three-year pilot phase, during which the Alliance sought to develop a joint research and curriculum on well-being following its main mission – to understand, improve, measure and balance the well-being of individuals, community, environment and the whole society on the regional, European and global levels.
In 2023, the European Commission announced that the EUniWell Alliance will receive funding under Erasmus+ European Universities Initiative, which enables EUniWell to develop as a European University and to be a leading voice on well-being. Over the next four years, the EUniWell Alliance will continue to create a new higher education paradigm, focused on multidimensional well-being at the individual, social and global levels. The interdisciplinary and intercultural approach aims to give students, researchers, teachers and society the skills and knowledge needed to solve the complex problems that society faces today – from the mental health of people to global climate change.
EUniWell 2030 outlines our roadmap as a European University focused on the specific concept of Well-being. It establishes the framework for the activities that will deepen our impact in research and education, our transformative work at the converging frontiers of innovation, and our societal engagement and contribution to policy-making.
