The Young European Research Universities Network (YERUN) founded in 2015 and based in Brussels, brings together excellence and value-driven young research universities.[1] The network's objective is to strategically represent its members in the decision-making process at EU level, thus shaping their future and promoting their role in European societies.[2] Further to its policy advocacy activity, the network also strengthens cooperation opportunities among its members in areas of mutual interest and raises their visibility via a dedicated communication strategy.[3]
