Contact data 1 Bucharest, 19 -24 of April 2012 Dear participants, A few years back, there was talk in ESU about making a coordinated effort to campaign on funding of higher education. Ever since, we have seen austerity get harsher. And I believe we were anticipating that well in 2009, but perhaps we never thought how arduous this road out of the crisis would actually be. Since the unions felt they did not want to commit to a European campaign effort, we had to find alternatives. Well, what has ESU been doing all these years? Projects; yes! But how have these been put to use? Surely our projects have aimed to inform and train to support unions on the national level, but also to provide policy advice and also evidence. So indeed, FIST was born! FinSt, excuse me! Financing the Students Future! With some innovation and extra thoughts into how to shift towards a campaigning union.

    About Romania Romania (Romanian: România, IPA: [ro.mɨni.a]) is a country in Southeastern Europe sited in a historic region that dates back to antiquity. It shares border with Hungary and Serbia to the west, Ukraine and the Republic of Moldova to the northeast, and Bulgaria to the south. Romania has a stretch of sea coast along the Black Sea. It is located roughly in the lower basin of the Danube and almost all of the Danube Delta is located within its territory. Romania is a parliamentary unitary state. As a nation-state, the country was formed by the merging of Moldavia and Wallachia in 1859 and it gained recognition of its independence in 1878. Later, in 1918, they were joined by Transylvania, Bukovina and Bessarabia. At the end of World War II, parts of its territories (roughly the present day Moldova) were occupied by USSR and Romania became a member of Warsaw Pact. With the fall of the Iron Curtain in 1989, Romania started a series of political and economic reforms that peaked with Romania joining the European Union. Romania has been a member of the European Union since January 1, 2007, and has the ninth largest territory in the EU and with 22 million people [1] it has the 7th largest population among the EU member states. Its capital and largest city is Bucharest (Romanian: Bucureşti /bu.kureʃtʲ/ (help·info)), the sixth largest city in the EU with almost 2 million people. In 2007, Sibiu, a large city in Transylvania, was chosen as European Capital of Culture.[2] Romania joined NATO on March 29, 2004, and is also a member of the Latin Union, of the Francophonie and of OSCE.
