A milestone for the Alliance
On November 16, representatives of the EUNICE Alliance universities were present at UMONS to sign, in the presence of Notary Franeau, the document creating the EUNICE AISBL (international non-profit association). This signature represents an important step for the Alliance, which will now have a legal existence. The Rector of the University of Mons, Philippe Dubois, will be the first President of the AISBL. The President of the Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France, Abdelhakim Artiba, who was also present, was unanimously appointed Vice President.
