The COPAFEU project kick-off meeting held in Helsinki, Finland on March 14-15, 2024, marked the initiation of an innovative collaboration between higher education institutions from African and European countries. In partnership with the Hanken School of Economics, this endeavor aims to foster sustainable development through co-produced knowledge and case-based pedagogy.
Named COPAFEU, which stands for “Co-producing Knowledge on Sustainable Development through Case-based Pedagogy between African and European Higher Education Institutes,” the project brings together universities from northern regions like Finland and Greece, and southern regions including Ethiopia, Tanzania, Nigeria, and South Africa.
