Slove Muscelene Symposium: Digital transformation – a strategic component of management
Article published on dcnews.ro
“Carol I” Central University Library together with the Academy of Romanian Scientists, through the “Constantin Angelescu” Institute for Advanced Interdisciplinary Research (ICAI), the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics ICI Bucharest, the National Museum of Romanian Literature, the “George Barițiu” County Library of Brasov, the “Carol I” University Foundation and the DigiLib Muscel Association, organised the 14th edition of the “Slove Muscelene” symposium on 14 and 15 July 2022, on the theme “Digital transformation of cultural and educational institutions”.
The symposium “Slove muscelene”, initiated and organized by Prof. univ. dr. eng. Doina Banciu (Vice President of AOSR and Director General of ICAI) since 2009, has been held since its inception in Câmpulung Muscel, with the support of local authorities, and since 2021 in a hybrid format, in the Aula of the Central University Library “Carol I” in Bucharest, doubled this year by the online presence of several personalities from the country and abroad, guests from France, Croatia, Cyprus and Sweden. The cultural-scientific event also means the preservation of the “Slove Muscelene” tradition, started 13 years ago.
The first day took place in the hall of the Central University Library “Carol I”, during which the following spoke on behalf of the organizers: prof. univ. dr. eng. Doina Banciu, prof. univ. dr. Mireille Rădoi, prof. univ. dr. Ioan Cristescu, prof. univ. dr. eng. Dumitru Popescu – Academy of Romanian Scientists.
Prof. dr. eng. Doina Banciu, Director General of ICAI, wanted, as host, moderator and organizer, to encourage specialists, researchers, but also young people entering the multidisciplinary area of digital transformation to pay more attention to the human factor of human resource management in this particularly challenging issue. Digital transformation, in his view, must be understood and applied as a strategic component of transformation management.
The event was also honoured by the presence of officials from key ministries, which are particularly concerned by the phenomenon of digital transformation.
The Minister of Culture, Lucian Romașcanu, welcomed the organisers’ initiative through Ioan Matei, Director of the Office of Written Culture and Contemporary Creation – Ministry of Culture, supporting the development of projects that encourage the acceleration of digitisation of public institutions.
The message of the Minister of Education, Sorin – Mihai Cîmpeanu, was delivered by State Secretary Sorin Ion: Adapting education systems to the digital age has become a major issue on the national and European agenda. This is a political initiative of the European Union to support youth training systems in the Member States. […] The 14th edition of the international symposium “Slove Muscelene” deals closely with the technological evolution of the educational system, hosting debates and avant-garde resolutions that place it on the map of prestigious events.
During the symposium’s debates, also intervened prominent representatives of Romanian state institutions, such as: prof. univ. dr. eng. Adrian Badea, President of AOȘR, Simona Bucura-Oprescu – MP, President of the Committee for Public Administration and Territorial Planning, Romanian Parliament, Dragoș Cristian Vlad – President, Authority for the Digitalization of Romania, prof. univ. dr. eng. Tudor Prisecaru – Secretary of State, Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitisation, Academician Florin Gheorghe Filip – Romanian Academy, President of the Information Science and Technology Section.
The event had a special symbolism, starting on the National Day of France, enjoying the presence of Mr Mohamed Ketata, Regional Director of the Agence Universitaire de la Francophonie – Central and Eastern Europe, who stressed the importance of these scientific and educational approaches, appreciating the large number of participants.
As in previous years, the event was attended by academics, university professors, researchers, historians, representatives of the Argeș prefecture, as well as numerous library directors, members of the National Commission of Libraries (CNB), along with other guests from France, Croatia, Cyprus, Sweden, who evoked the importance of digital transformation of the institutions they represent.
At this edition, Elena Iagăr and Ion Tița-Nicolescu presented an exhibition of traditional Muscelian costumes, entitled “Marama, an element of Muscelian identity”. There was also the book launch of Alexandra Badea’s book “Points de non-retour [Diagonale du vide], [Quais de Seine], [Thiaroye]”, published by L’Arche, Paris.
Cultural and educational institutions play a key role in promoting knowledge through interaction and dialogue. The library is the space, both physical and virtual, where you can realise that the person who sees the world differently is not just an account on a social network, but a real person. This is where books, electronic resources, employees or other users can help you to pass through a critical filter the information you take in every day. You can get acquainted with different views and, at the same time, learn that behind a relevant analysis there must always be a methodological basis, said Mireille Rădoi, Director General of the Central University Library “Carol I”.
The symposium ended on 15 July with the online support of several scientific papers. The session was moderated by Asst. Dr. Marian Oancea, Head of the Research, Development, Digitization Service of the “Carol I” Central University Library and Dr. Eng. Mihai Dumitrache, Head of the Ro-TLD Department. The papers will be published in a volume with a presentation of the Muscel area and its development prospects.
“Digital Transformation of Cultural and Educational Institutions” | International Symposium “Slove Muscelene” | 14th edition, 14-15 July 2022
The Academy of Romanian Scientists, through the Institute for Advanced Interdisciplinary Research “Constantin Angelescu” (ICAI), together with its institutional partners the “Carol I” Central University Library, the National Institute for Research and Development in Informatics ICI Bucharest, the National Museum of Romanian Literature, the “George Barițiu” County Library of Brasov, the “Carol I” University Foundation and the DigiLib Muscel Association organized the 14th edition of the international symposium “Slove muscelene” themed “Digital transformation of institutions in culture and education“.
The symposium “Slove muscelene”, initiated and organized by Prof. univ. dr. eng. Doina Banciu(Vice President of AOSR and Director General of ICAI) in 2009, has been held, since its debut, in Câmpulung Muscel, with the support of local authorities, and since 2021 in hybrid format, in the Aula of the Central University Library “Carol I” in Bucharest, this year benefiting from the online presence of several personalities from the country and abroad, guests from France, Croatia, Cyprus and Sweden.
Digital Transformation, between technology and human resources management
The official opening of the symposium took place on Thursday, 14 July 2022, at 10.00 am, in the Aula of the Central University Library “Carol I” in Bucharest, in the presence of academics, university professors, researchers, historians, directors of major libraries, who stressed the importance of Digital Transformation and analyzed the means to achieve it in Romania.
Ms Doina Banciu, Vice President of AOSR and Director General of ICAI, in her triple role as host, moderator and organiser, wanted to encourage specialists, researchers and younger people entering the multidisciplinary field of Digital Transformation to pay more attention to the management of human resources in this particularly challenging issue. As the human factor plays an important role in the success of digital transformation processes, public administration authorities, as well as the legislative power, together with academia and the private sector, must define a new social pact that places people at the heart of Digital Transformation. Digital Transformation needs to be understood and applied as a strategic component of human factor transformation management in organisations, first and foremost, and then as a technological, ICT component.
During the debates of the symposium “Slove muscelene” participated physically and online Miss Simona Bucura-Oprescu – MP, Chair of the Committee for Public Administration and Spatial Planning, Romanian Parliament, Mr. Dragoș Cristian Vlad – President, Authority for the Digitization of Romania, Prof. univ. dr. ing Tudor Prisecaru – Secretary of State, Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitization, Academician Florin Gheorghe Filip – Romanian Academy, Prof. univ. dr. ing. Dumitru Popescu – President of the Information Science and Technology Section, Academy of Romanian Scientists, as well as officials from the Prefecture of Argeș, and other leading specialists.
AOSR President, Mr. Adrian Badea appreciated the importance of the initiative of Vice President Doina Banciu, who has dedicated no less than 14 years to a cultural event that started in Câmpulung Muscel and has become today an event with international reverberations, training professionals from several countries passionate about the phenomenon of Digital Transformation. President Badea reinforced the idea that AOSR is at the forefront of these paradigm shifts in the world of science and culture in Romania, as the work of the Academy he coordinates is focused on promoting the latest ideas in these areas of research and innovation. Moreover, AOSR has a special program dedicated to Digital Transformation, and this International Symposium is an integral part of AOSR’s vision of developing in the coming years the acceleration of the digitalization phenomenon in all fields of Romanian society.
D.na conf. Dr Mireille Rădoi, Director of the BCU, said at the opening of the symposium the importance of the topic under discussion, especially from the point of view of libraries that have to face the new institutional paradigms generated by the digital transformation.
The symposium also respected Romania’s traditional relations with France, so on the occasion of the celebration of France’s National Day (July 14) the book “Points de non-retour [Diagonale du vide], [Quais de Seine], [Thiaroye]” by the French author of Romanian origin Alexandra Badea was launched, published by L’Arche Publishing House, Paris, 2019.
The cultural event also included a unique exhibition of traditional Muscelian costumes,
“Marama, an element of Muscel’s identity”
by Elena Iagăr and Ion Tița-Nicolescu, including costumes from the personal collection of Mrs. Simona Bucura-Oprescu.
Officials from the Ministries of Education, Culture, Research, Innovation and Digitisation welcome the International Symposium
The select audience also benefited from the presence of officials from three key ministries particularly concerned by the Digital Transformation phenomenon, namely Mr. State Secretary Sorin Ion – Ministry of Education, Mr. Director Ioan Matei – Ministry of Culture, who also delivered messages to the relevant ministers. Mr. State Secretary Tudor Prisecaru, Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitisation and President of the Authority for the Digitisation of Romania, Mr. Dragoș Cristian Vlad expressed official views on the role of the institutions he coordinates in harmonising the digital transformation of the public sector in Romania.
Simona Bucura-Oprescu, a Member of Parliament from Muscel, gave a well documented presentation, coupled with a personal-affective involvement in the cultural phenomenon of the Muscel area, who presented the benefits of the Digital Transformation, which must be supported by an adequate legislative framework that the Romanian Parliament will provide in the next period. She stressed that the tradition of the Arges area has always been one of tolerance, of openness towards people, and the national costumes exhibited at the Symposium, some even from her personal collection, show the intellectual richness and strength of character of the local people.
Mister. Secretary of State Sorin Ion declared himself a supporter and promoter of digital transformation in the education system, together with the leadership of the Ministry of Education of which he is a member, evoking the steps taken in the last three years since the acceleration of digitization, caused by the Covid 19 pandemic, in the field of education has created multiple positive experiences in the new direction of the e-learning phenomenon and “remote” education, from anywhere through digital systems.
In turn, Mr. State Secretary Tudor Prisecaru (MCID) evoked the international personalities who have their roots in Câmpulung Muscel, as well as the research elements that must underpin the digital transformation. The Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitisation, a new structure created not many years ago, could be the policy vector for the development of this new phenomenon of Digital Transformation. Both the Government and the EU have earmarked a number of funds for Digital Transformation, which must be targeted in projects to be submitted by public institutions of national public interest.
The President of the RDA, Mr. Dragoș Cristian Vlad, says that the institution he heads is at the heart of Digital Transformation in all public institutions, including libraries and other cultural institutions, and that the NRRP can create a suitable framework for both broadly useful projects and individual institutions. The new team at the RDA, also formed following recent competitions, has all the assets to ensure that the RDA’s mission is carried out successfully in the coming years, with particular emphasis on libraries being at the heart of the Digital Transformation phenomenon.
Professor Soulla Louca, Director of the Institute For the Future, University of Nicosia, from Cyprus had a very interesting and informationally consistent intervention proving that the current directions in Digital Transformation must also be based on the new strategic directions represented by blockchain, data mining and must pay particular attention to both the phenomenon of artificial intelligence and also that of cyber security, so challenging especially in the last three years.
A first book launch for Romania
The first day of the symposium at BCU also saw the Romanian premiere of three books by French-language author Alexandra Badea. The launch benefited from the presentation of three leading professionals: Prof. Liviu Lucaci, Rector of the University of Theatre and Cinema Arts Bucharest, Prof. Ioan Cristescu, Director of the National Museum of Romanian Literature and cultural diplomat Mohamed Ketata, Regional Director – Agence Universitaire de la Francophonie – Central & Eastern Europe Regional. Mister. Ketata was keen to note that Romanian playwright Alexandra Badea’s trilogy captures and enhances an important element of many French people’s existence, including her family history, the sense of identity. The documentary maker is driven by the desire to recover and as far as possible repair memories. Born in 1980, Alexandra Badea is a Romanian-born French author, director, playwright and actress whose plays, like her first novel, Zone d’amour Prioritaire, are published by L’Arche – a renowned French publishing house created in 1949 by Robert Voisin. The publishing house aims to familiarise a broad public with the fields reserved for specialists, such as psychoanalysis, philosophy, aesthetics and theatre.
UATC’s rector, Liviu Lucaciu, pointed out the personality of the author, whom he has known for at least 20 years through collaborations with Romanian theatres, underlining the director’s presence in the activity of the National Theatre of Bucharest, as well as her successes at international level, in her triple capacity as playwright, scriptwriter and even actor in her own plays.
Following the launch, the director of MNLR, Ioan Cristescu, wanted to point out that such artistic works should also be translated into Romanian, because they are important elements in the cultural links between nations and undoubtedly contribute to tolerance towards other peoples from different geographical areas.
