Seminar on Enhancing Equity in European Higher Education

Equity in European Higher Education: State of the Research, Problems, Ideas and Perspectives

7th November 2012 at the University Foundation, Rue d’Egmont 11 Brussels

At the end of its lifecycle, EquNet is organising an International Workshop to contribute, starting from the results of the EquNet research and of similar exercises, to shape EU and national policies in the field of Higher Education and to foster the exchange of research findings, working practices and ideas among relevant stakeholders and communities, in particular facilitating contact between the academic and the civil society communities.

The workshop will gather around 50 representatives of stakeholders from the HE field (European HE associations, universities, experts, policy makers) and from the social inclusion field (NGOs, associations, trade unions). Please confirm your participation to Beatrice Niyibigira: beatrice.niyibigira@menon.org.

In the last two years eight European stakeholders and research organisations have been working, through the EquNet project and with the support of the European Commission, to enhance equity in European Higher Education through networking among all interested stakeholders and have been gathering research on the topic. This workshop will present the results of the project and offers an opportunity to network with reelvant stakeholders of the field.
