DRC - Danube Rectors' Conference

Our highlight of 2025: The DRC Annual Conference took place in November at the Univerzitet u Tuzli - University of Tuzla in Bosnia and Herzegovina!

The two-day meeting brought together university leaders, policymakers, and experts to discuss the role of artificial intelligence in contemporary education. 🎓🤖

Focusing on the responsible, ethical, and innovative use of AI, discussions explored key challenges such as adapting curricula, safeguarding academic integrity, and strengthening digital and AI competencies. 💡

A key contributor was Prof. univ. dr. psych. Daniel David, DRC President, who participated in his new role as Romania’s Minister of Education and Research.

Please welcome our new members! 🎉
