RESEARCH & INNOVATION

Strengthening our research dimension

The IN.TUNE Research Cooperation Framework is a comprehensive initiative aimed at fostering collaboration and innovation in research within the alliance partners. Through an inventory and comparative analysis, we will identify joint interests, resources, policies and needs related to research, laying the foundation for the establishment of IN.TUNE Knowledge Hubs.

These hubs bring together students, teachers, and researchers to develop and implement cooperative research initiatives. Our focus will be on promoting the link between research and education, cooperation and enhancing the quality and visibility of research outcomes.

With joint support to research supervision, enhanced access for research outcomes, and the publication of a position paper on research, we aim to drive advancements in the research activities in alliance partner institutions, while leveraging the collective expertise and resources of the alliance partners. Through these efforts, we aspire to create a lasting impact on research practices, policies and impact in artistic and education communities, and in society.

The IN.TUNE Policy for Capacity Building and Innovation will develop a sustainable plan for enhancing training, professional development and lifelong learning for teachers, non-educational staff and professionals within the institutions of the alliance. The two main types of professional development will be courses for teachers, and training courses for management and administrative staff.

Our ‘Artist as Teacher’ courses will provide a peer-to-peer setting for our teachers to acquire learning and teaching strategies from a critical point of view, as well as discuss issues on research, assessment and social safety. For our staff we will make use of the existing provision in alliance institutions and combine experience and knowledge to tailor courses focusing on establishing connections with the rest of the alliance and exchanging examples of good practice. To do so, an inventory and plan for institutional capacity building is being developed. Besides these goals, a progressive joint curricular innovation scheme will be defined, with a focus on interdisciplinary artistic pedagogy. For this we will count on our Associated Partners from related artistic fields.

With the development of these policies, we aim to establish a sustainable policy that will provide a framework for the implementation of forward-looking skills and competences within the alliance institutions.
