EUTOPIA and CY to Host Conference on University Science Diplomacy in Paris

On 24 September 2025, CY Cergy Paris University and EUTOPIA will host the conference “University Science Diplomacy: An AUF / EUTOPIA Cooperation” at the Embassy of Romania in France.

The event marks the launch of a report on science diplomacy in three EUTOPIA partner universities—Babeș-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, CY Cergy Paris University, and the International University of Rabat. The report, authored by Luciana Rădut-Gaghi and Éric Piaget, explores how universities engage in science diplomacy and contribute to international cooperation.

The conference will open with remarks from Ioana Bivolaru, Ambassador of Romania to France, and bring together leading experts in the field of university science diplomacy.

This initiative reflects a growing collaboration between the Agence Universitaire de la Francophonie (AUF) and EUTOPIA, strengthening academic and diplomatic ties across Europe and beyond. 

The event will conclude with a networking buffet, providing an opportunity for further exchanges among participants.
