The SPHERE Study Visit “AI and Digital Transformation for Inclusive Universities: Policy, Practice, and Impact” was organized online, on 9-10 March, 2026 bringing together university leaders, academics, and policy experts to address the future of digital transformation.

The programme focused on how AI is reshaping teaching, learning, internationalisation, and institutional wellbeing, with a strong emphasis on inclusion and equity. Through keynote presentations, institutional case studies, and interactive workshops, participants explored both the opportunities and challenges associated with AI adoption in universities.

Discussions highlighted that while AI-driven technologies can expand access to education and personalise learning experiences, they also introduce risks related to ethics, inequality, and academic integrity. Participants stressed the importance of aligning digital transformation strategies with human-centred values and existing European and national policy frameworks.

The event attracted a diverse group of higher education professionals, including institutional leaders, teaching staff, digital learning specialists, and policy officers. Many attendees were engaged in strategic initiatives aimed at strengthening inclusive practices, improving student support, and advancing innovation in increasingly international academic environments.

Key outcomes of the study visit included a deeper understanding of how AI can support equitable teaching and learning, as well as insights into governance, quality assurance, and ethical considerations. Participants also shared examples of institutional practices that bridge policy and implementation.

By the end of the visit, attendees reported gaining practical knowledge to inform decision-making and strategy development within their own institutions. The exchange of experiences and peer learning were highlighted as essential in shaping responsible and sustainable approaches to digital transformation.

The study visit underscored the growing importance of collaborative, evidence-based approaches to integrating AI in higher education—ensuring that technological progress enhances inclusion, academic integrity, and overall institutional wellbeing.

A training workshop titled “Erasmus+ Intensive Cooperation between High Schools and Universities” was held at the University of Banja Luka on 17 February 2026, bringing together participants from vocational education and training (VET) schools and university staff.

The main objective of the workshop was to present Erasmus+ opportunities available to participants from Bosnia and Herzegovina in the fields of higher education and vocational education and training. Participants were introduced to key Erasmus+ actions, including capacity building in VET, cooperation partnerships, centres of vocational excellence, and innovation alliances.

The event opened with an address by Prof. Kristina Pantelić-Babić, Vice-Rector for Interuniversity and International Cooperation, who emphasized the importance of international collaboration through the Erasmus+ programme. The workshop continued with a comprehensive overview of Erasmus+ objectives and priorities, as well as examples of successful project implementation.

Practical guidance formed a central part of the training, with detailed explanations of the application process, including opening an EU account, obtaining a PIC number, partner search strategies, lump sum budget planning, and navigating the EU Funding and Tenders Portal. Participants were encouraged to consult the Erasmus+ Programme Guide and official call documentation when preparing project proposals.

The workshop concluded with an interactive discussion session, enabling participants to exchange experiences, clarify questions, and explore opportunities for strengthening cooperation between higher education institutions and vocational schools.

The University of Banja Luka, in cooperation with the Erasmus+ Office in Bosnia and Herzegovina, is organizing an Erasmus+ workshop aimed at strengthening cooperation between secondary schools and higher education institutions within the Erasmus+ programme.
