Abstract
Introduction
This paper presents selected results from the Europe Horizon EPIC-WE research and innovation project (2023-2026). The presentation highlights the theoretical frameworks of Quadruple Helix Ecosystems (Carayannis & Campbell, 2017) and Living Labs (Brandt & Bruun, 2023; Schuurman, De Marez & Ballon, 2015).) as potential frameworks for the practice of future higher education along with their specific relevance to the DUNK theme of ‘Higher education in a time of transition’ (EUA, 2021).
Methods
The paper put forward some main implications, challenges and opportunities that are emerging from the findings of the EPIC-WE project’s Design Based Research methodology along with the project’s first major reports submitted to the European Commission: The PRISMA2020 Method State-of-the-Art report (2024) and The Quadruple Helix Cultural Ecosystems and Cultural Hubs protocol (2024).
Results
The project’s methods and results are presented to highlight how higher education can utilise the frameworks of Quadruple Helix Ecosystems and Living Labs for valuable cross-sector and trans-disciplinary transformative partnerships in a time of transition (Nørgård & Holflod, 2024). First, findings from the state-of-the-art within is introduced to point towards how future higher education might hold opportunities to address and tackle future challenges and how frameworks enable us to envision and practice in new ways. Secondly, concrete guidelines and principles for the practicing of higher education as Living Labs and Quadruple Helix Ecosystem is presented based on the protocol. Here, special attention is paid to the higher education potentials of transformative cross-sector partnerships with creative industries and cultural organisations. Finally, concrete examples of Living Labs in the form of Cultural Hubs are provided, presenting one valuable way to foster future possibilities for young people in research, learning and worklife.
Discussion
Based on the presentation of the EPIC-WE Ecosystem and Cultural Hubs framework, we discuss how current challenges

| Andet | Universiteterne og de øvrige videregående uddannelser står over for store udfordringer og muligheder i en tid, hvor rammerne for uddannelse brydes og forandres. Samfundsmæssige strømninger, politiske reformer, digitalisering og introduktionen af generativ kunstig intelligens rejser spørgsmål om, hvad der skal fornyes, og hvad der skal fastholdes i den pædagogiske tænkning og værktøjskasse for universiteter og de videregående uddannelser.<br/><br/>Hvordan tænkes fx kunstig intelligens ind i undervisningen, og hvad kan og bør det betyde for måden at undervise på? Hvad betyder den stigende diversitet blandt studerende, og hvilke didaktiske greb kan man tage i brug for at skabe inklusion og give lige mulighed for deltagelse? Hvilke værdier og hvilke redskaber kommer til at forme og påvirke fremtiden på universiteterne og de videregående uddannelser, og hvad skal og kan vi gøre for at analysere, skabe redskaber og rådgive uddannelsernes ledere, undervisere, didaktiske pædagoger og studerende således, at de står stærkt i forhold til en fremtid, vi allerede står med et ben i?<br/><br/>I en brydningstid, der kalder på nye perspektiver eller en genopfindelse af pædagogiske greb, vil vi som forskere, undervisere og undervisningsudviklere med interesse for pædagogik få mulighed for at dele viden og erfaringer om, hvordan vi udvikler og imødekommer fremtidens behov for nytænkning inden for undervisning og læring. Årets DUN konference er en mulighed for at præsentere den nyeste forskning om og dele de bedste erfaringer med, hvordan vi sammen kan videreudvikle en pædagogikken på universiteterne og de videregående uddannelser der adresserer morgendagens udfordringer.<br/><br/>Spørgsmål og tematikker kan eksempelvis være:<br/><br/> På hvilken måde arbejdes der med Dansk ramme for meritering af universitetspædagogiske kompetencer for at styrke undervisernes undervisningskompetencer?<br/> Hvilke forventninger er der til undervisernes digitale didaktiske kompetencer, når generativ AI ændrer præmisserne for læring og eksamen?<br/> Hvordan opleves diversitet i undervisningen, hvilke inklusions-/eksklusionsmekanismer er på spil og hvordan skabes tilhørsforhold? |
