It has been prepared by the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) on the basis of contributions from the Tempus Offices and the authorities concerned. The approach and data collection have been implemented in collaboration with Eurydice, the network on education systems and policies in Europe. Preface The Tempus programme, launched in 1990, is one of the longest standing EU-funded programmes in the field of education. During more than 20 years of its existence, Tempus has supported the modernisation of higher education in the Partner Countries outside the European Union, namely in Eastern Europe, Central Asia, the Western Balkans and in the Southern Mediterranean. In order to carry out Tempus projects with higher education institutions in the Tempus Partner Countries, the knowledge of the system in which the institutions operate is crucial for the success of project activities. The higher education systems of the Partners Countries operate in different contexts and have different historical backgrounds. For this reason, the definition of the needs and the objectives of the projects should be based on knowledge of the reality in the country concerned and should take into account the existing policies and legislative developments.

  • Souvenir Booklet Jerusalem Conference 2020
    Jerusalem: From Past Divisions to a Shared Future? Balfour The Case for Equal Rights Souvenir Booklet from our Online Conference Held on 27th October 2020 Project Statement: Israel/Palestine: Equal Rights for lasting Peace The Balfour Project issued this statement at the end of the conference, signed by British Parliamentarians and Faith leaders, to be conveyed to the Prime Minister and Foreign Secretary. We acknowledge Britain’s historic responsibilities for inequality and discrimination in Jerusalem and across the Holy Land. They stem from the last century, through the Balfour Declaration and the British Mandate for Palestine, with consequences which are still felt today. Past British responsibility for present injustice demands British commitment to work urgently for a better future, respecting equal rights. With British assistance, the Jewish people exercised their right to self-determination in the Holy Land more than 70 years ago. To this day, the Palestinian people are denied this right. This injustice must end. The future of Jerusalem is crucial to peace between Israelis and Palestinians, and between Israel and the Arab and Muslim worlds. The recent normalisation of relations between Israel and some Arab Gulf states is no substitute for a lasting peace founded on broad popular consent from Israelis and Palestinians. Sharing Jerusalem is essential to gain that consent. Palestinians and Israelis will share the Holy Land forever, and must shape its future together. Only equality will bring safety and well-being, and essential dialogue. The two peoples, alone, have not attained peaceful coexistence. So, for the good of both, and if we truly mean what we say, we in Britain must help reverse current negative developments which only entrench separation and inequality.

  • NORTH MACEDONIA European Inventory on NQF 2018
    © Cedefop, 2019 NORTH MACEDONIA European inventory on NQF 2018 Introduction and context North Macedonia (1) became an EU candidate country in December 2005 and is currently being screened to start EU accession negotiations by June 2019 (ETF, 2018). The country has registered positive trends in recent years, such as a significant increase in tertiary education attainment (reaching 32.9% in 2018), and a reduction in the rate of early leavers from education and training (7.3% in 2018). With respect to other ET 2020 benchmarks, such as participation of adults in lifelong learning, participation in early childhood education and care, share of 15-year-olds with low achievement in reading, mathematics and science, and employment rate of recent graduates, the country is situated far below EU averages (2). Labour market indicators have shown gradual improvements since 2005, and in 2018 the unemployment rate (15 to 64 years old) reached a historical low level (21.1%). Youth unemployment (15 to 24 years old) is, however, still high, at 47.6% in 2018 (3), and there is a particularly high gender gap in activity and employment rates (4). Reforms have been underway in all parts of the education and training system. Significant improvement in transition to higher levels of education and training has been facilitated in the past decade through a number of education policies, such as making secondary education compulsory for all, streamlining progression routes of graduates from three-year VET programmes to four-year (1) Throughout this report, official national documents carry the internal denominations ‘Republic of Macedonia/Macedonian’, and not the EU officially designated ‘former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia’ or ‘Republic of North Macedonia'/'North Macedonian’ (as of 15.2.2019).

Changing conditions in the labor market must be better matched by a continued development of the competencies of the workforce and enhance the social inclusion of people into active work life. This could mean learning new and appropriate skills within a current work field, re- education into new profession, or providing transversal skills that enables easier career shifts. Therefore, activities within this project include work with university and national policies, focusing on organization and work with life long learning (LLL) approaches. LLL is directed to the increase of person's competence level overall; for example development of his/her general outlook, communication skills, language proficiency, ethical education, conducting negotiations, topical skills in any given area, and so on. LLL fills the gaps left off by formal education

    6 EUROPEAN EDUCATION European Education, vol. 45, no. 2 (Summer 2013), pp. 6–27. © 2013 M.E. Sharpe, Inc. All rights reserved. Permissions: www.copyright.com ISSN 1056–4934 (print)/ISSN 1944–7086 (online) DOI: 10.2753/EUE1056-4934450201 AMR A SA BIC -EL-RA Y ess When Corruption Gets in the Way Befriending Diaspora and EU-nionizing Bosnia’s Higher Education This article investigates the encounter of EU-unionization with a domesticated practice of corruption in Bosnian higher education. Relying on primary data collected in Bosnia’s public higher education system, the study finds that the country’s corrupt higher education is in conflict with the Bologna-themed reforms that would arguably help harmonize Bosnia’s fragmented higher education. As it delineates factors that perpetuate corruption, the study, somewhat surprisingly, finds that the Bologna process—despite its partly failed adaptation in Bosnia—is still perceived as potentially transformative for the country’s corruption-prone higher education system. The study further looks into why that may be the case and explores a possibility of leveraging Bosnia’s intelligentsia abroad to lessen corruption in higher education. Appearing in various forms, educational corruption is often systemic and has a profound societal impact on developing countries. In line with Waite and Allen’s (2003) and Sayed and Bruce’s (1998a and 1998b) definitions of corruption, this analysis flexibly defines educational corruption as any abuse of official position that is pursued by an individual for either his/her benefit or that of his/her class or group. Corrupt behaviors have shaped the interaction between EU-nionizing1 forces and corrupt practices in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s higher education, but have generally remained out of researchers’ focus partly due to the phenomenon’s clandestine nature and risks associated with the topic’s pursuit in a politically fragile setting such as Bosnia.
