C-FLEX aims at delivering a first holistic analysis of digital education infrastructure in the context of the process of the digitalisation of education. The analysis conducted in C-FLEX aims to have a strong feedback into pedagogy, making the project’s learnings immediately available in the form of pedagogical materials.

The general goal of the project is to investigate the impacts and sustainability of the process of creating Europe’s Digital Education Infrastructure, exploring what possible futures we could have ahead, and discussing ways to steer our institutions and countries in one direction or another.

The highest priority is to make sure that future online education is open, accessible, and sustainable in the long-term future.
