Foreword

Dear reader,

In a global and interconnected society, international cooperation has become a key component of higher education. Over the last decades, this development has profoundly reshaped the field of higher education, as universities from Europe and the rest of the world have paid greater attention to the international mobility of students and staff.

Reacting to these developments, in 2009 the European Commission launched the Erasmus Mundus Action 2 in the framework of the Erasmus Mundus programme (2009-2013). The Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) has been managing the implementation since its launch.

The main objective of Erasmus Mundus Action 2 is to promote partnerships between higher education institutions (HEIs) from Europe and partner countries with the aim of enhancing academic cooperation and exchanges of students and staff. In so doing, we are happy to report that these mobility projects have also contributed to the socio-economic development of the non-EU countries targeted by the EU external cooperation policies.

Since Erasmus Mundus Action 2 will come to an end in 2018, the time has come to take stock of the challenges faced and lessons learned over 9 years of successful implementation. Against this background, this publication aims to draw conclusions on the main outcomes achieved by the action. The results are based on qualitative and quantitative data collected throughout the duration of the Erasmus Mundus Action 2, including the final conference organised in Brussels on the 8th and 9th of February 2017. In this document, the perspectives of the participating scholarship holders and higher education institutions are brought together with the expertise acquired by the Executive Agency to analyse the impact of the mobility schemes at the individual, institutional and systemic level.

The analysis provided in the following pages shows that Erasmus Mundus Action 2 had a broad impact on the lives of students as well as on the academic and institutional resources of the participating HEIs. More than 35.000 grantees were supported to study, research and train in a university abroad, and as a consequence acquired new professional and personal skills that would translate into better career perspectives. Furthermore, 1.296 EU and partner country HEIs located in 153 countries of the world could build strong inter-institutional links. These resulted in a multitude of bilateral or multilateral agreements in education and research and considerable progress with regard to internationalisation, recognition of credits and degrees.

This publication intends to show the positive outcomes achieved by Erasmus Mundus Action 2, but it also aims to encourage further reflection on the challenges that lie ahead. We are pleased to share with you the wealth of experience we have gathered over the years and I am confident that this report will provide useful insights for stakeholders, policy makers and the European Commission alike.

ERASMUS MUNDUS ACTION 2 PARTNERSHIPS : MAIN ACHIEVEMENTS AND RESULTS (2010-2018) 5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Executive Summary

The aim of this publication is to summarize the main results of almost 9 years of Erasmus Mundus Partnerships in international higher education. Launched in 2010 under the Erasmus Mundus programme (2009-2013), the so-called Erasmus Mundus Action 2 (EMA2) was set up with the aim to contribute to the sustainable development of partner countries in the field of higher education, in accordance with EU external policy objectives. The action is based on Partnerships between European and partner country higher education institutions and includes a scholarship scheme for mobility of students (undergraduate, master, doctoral and post-doctoral) and staff.

Since 2010, 233 Partnerships were financed under this action, involving 1.296 higher education institutions (HEIs) worldwide (377 from EU and 919 from partner countries) and a total budget of around €655 Million. Through the mobility scheme, over 35.000 students and staff benefitted from an EMA2 scholarship to study, research and train in a university abroad. The last mobility flows will come to an end in 2018.

Against this background, the aim of this publication is to present the main impact of Erasmus Mundus Action 2 on the individual actors involved (students and staff), on the higher education institutions in EU and partner countries, and more broadly on the higher education systems of the countries and regions targeted by the action. It furthermore provides regional factsheets, a comprehensive set of statistical data and recommendations to policy makers at all levels to feed on-going reflexions on the development of current/future programmes and policy frameworks on the international dimension of higher education.

The quantitative and qualitative findings presented in this publication are mainly based on the outcome of two surveys which were addressed to the scholarship holders and the higher education institutions involved in the action. Other important sources were the periodical reports from the project beneficiaries and the discussions with stakeholders in the framework of a conference which was organised on 8th and 9th February 2017 in Brussels under the title “10 Years of Erasmus Mundus Partnerships (2007-2017)".

The main messages resulting from the analysis of the above sources are presented below.

1. Main achievements of EMA2 at Individual Level (students & staff)

The mobility experience had a multifaceted impact on the lives, viewpoints and professional career of the grantees. EMA2 helped both students and staff to develop specialised competences and soft skills, boost the international aspects of their curricula and raise their employment perspectives on the labour market. The scholarship holders could also enrich their personality through the development of cross-cultural abilities and were exposed to complex environments where they could put into practice the values of equity, tolerance and inclusiveness. In addition, the action paid particular attention to aspects o f social inclusion and non- discrimination by mobilising vulnerable individuals and disadvantaged citizens and by promoting a fair gender balance.

 EMA2 helped boost the academic and professional skills and employment perspectives of students and staff - Overall, the EMA2 mobility had a positive impact on the academic and professional skills of the students, which was confirmed both by HEIs and scholarship holders. 63% of students and staff reported that the mobility was very useful for their professional career, and 44% stated that they could acquire specialised knowledge. In many cases, students could also benefit from career

Introduction

Purpose of the publication

The present publication was prepared by Unit A3 "Erasmus+: Higher Education – Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees" of the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) with the aim to present the overall achievements of the Erasmus Mundus Action 2 (EMA2), implemented between 2010 and 2018.

The publication encompasses several objectives and aims:

 To present the main outcomes of EMA2 notably on how the action succeeded in: o Supporting international academic cooperation between Europe and partner countries o Providing mobility opportunities to staff and students at all academic levels o Enhancing modernisation and competitiveness of higher education worldwide  To analyse the overall satisfaction of the involved actors such as students, staff and Higher Education Institutions (HEIs)  To provide useful data to policy makers and formulate recommendations for the development of current/future programmes and policy frameworks on the international dimension of higher education.

The target audience of this report comprises all the stakeholders involved in the design and implementation of international higher education programmes.

Erasmus Mundus Action 2

Background

The Erasmus Mundus Action 2 is an action which financed EU projects between 2009 and 2014 as part of the Erasmus Mundus programme. The objectives of Erasmus Mundus are to enhance the quality of higher education and promote dialogue and understanding between people and cultures through mobility and academic cooperation. Erasmus Mundus Action 2 provides international mobility opportunities by financing Partnerships between EU and partner country higher education institutions, and is characterized by two main objectives. First, the action provides support for the establishment of international cooperation mechanisms between HEIs from targeted partner countries and the EU to organise and implement structured individual mobility arrangements between Europe and several regions of the world. Second, it provides scholarships of various lengths - depending on the priorities defined for the partner countries concerned, the level of studies or the particular arrangements agreed within the project consortium - for European and partner country individuals (bachelor, master and PhD students, post-docs, academic and administrative staff). Since 2010, 35.000 students and staff were supported to study, research and train in a university abroad.

EMA2 is the successor of the Erasmus Mundus External Cooperation Window (ECW, 2007-2009), a higher education co-operation and mobility scheme launched in 2006 by EuropeAid Development and Cooperation which had a similar purpose. Under ECW, European and partner country universities had the chance to get started with setting up international mobility schemes. The academic links they could initiate over the implementation of this action were beneficial for their participation in EMA2.

Timeframe and budget

The results presented in this publication cover the period 2010-2018. During this timeframe, around € 655 million were allocated to EMA2 and 233 Partnerships were funded in the different regions worldwide through financial envelopes from several EU external policy instruments. These included the European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI), the Development Cooperation Instrument (DCI), the Instrument for Pre-

I.1 Main Achievements at Individual Level

The purpose of this section is to analyse the level of satisfaction and the impact that international mobility had on the students, academic and administrative staff taking part in EMA2.

If we look at the overall results achieved, figures are very positive. So far, the mobility projects have involved 28.447 students, whose vast majority come from partner countries (87%). The action has also financed scholarships for 6.580 staff1, out of whom more than two thirds (76%) were from the targeted regions of the world. Funding of the scholarships followed the characteristics of the calls for proposals, but also the overall budget allocated to each geographical area. The highest number of exchanges was allocated to grant holders from Eastern Europe (22%), Asia (20%) and the South Mediterranean region (18%). Mobility flows at undergraduate and master level were the most financed exchange types (27% each), followed by PhDs and staff (19% each).

The participants of the EMA2 Scholarship Holders' Impact Survey confirmed that their mobility experience had an impact on their lives, viewpoints and professional career. These positive trends can be interpreted as an indicator of the overall success and quality of the Partnerships.

Students and staff were motivated by a variety of reasons to participate in EMA2. The majority of them intended to go on mobility to enhance their future professional career, but other factors played an important role in their decisions to do an international exchange.

EMA2 helped both students and staff to develop specialized competences and soft skills, boost the international component of their curricula and raise their employability in the labour market. The scholarship holders could also enrich their personality through the development of cross-cultural abilities and were exposed to complex environments where they could put into practice the values of equity, tolerance and inclusiveness.

Students also took advantage of the high quality of the academic offer, the language courses and the variety of services made available such as career guidance, links with the world of work and internships. Likewise, staff could benefit from networking opportunities, the establishment of academic cooperation and joint research between home and host HEIs, and the exposure to new learning and teaching methods. In the host HEIs the staff was also sensitised to new institutional assets and innovative working practices that they could adopt in their universities of origin.

EMA2 also paid particular attention to aspects of social inclusion and non-discrimination by mobilising vulnerable individuals (migrants, refugees, asylum-seekers) and disadvantaged citizens (socio-economically deprived citizens and people with special needs) and by aiming to the balanced participation of both female and male grantees.

1 The total final number of mobility flows financed will be available only upon termination of all EMA2 projects (July 2018).

Almost all of the grantees (98%) also acknowledge that the mobility contributed to the increase of their professional competences and skills. Students found that the greatest achievements attained were linked to their General impact of Erasmus Mundus on students future profession, as they deemed the specific skills and knowledge acquired relevant for their future employment.

Whereas the grant holders place intercultural competences, language skills and problem-solving at the forefront of the personal competences acquired, the universities consider that students on mobility mainly improved their cultural knowledge, communication and social skills and acquired self-confidence.

The benefits of EMA2 are also visible with regard to the grantees' employability. If the grant holders affirmed that mobility was very useful for their professional career, HEIs confirmed that students studying in

another country for a defined time span are better qualified for the job market than those without any international experience.

As a result, the participating scholarship holders became more attractive to employers thanks to the high value of their international experience. Mobility prepared students to be more flexible and open-minded, but also to be ready in facing the challenges of the labour market. In many cases, the grantees could also benefit from career assistance (career guidance and counselling, networking opportunities) offered by the host universities to facilitate their access to the world of work after their mobility.

The efforts put in place by the participating HEIs also Rate of former EMA2 students who found led to fruitful results for the grantees with regard to employment within one year after graduation their actual employment after graduation. When 35% 31,5% looking at the time needed for EMA2 students to be

Furthermore, the Erasmus Mundus Partnerships contributed to the transition from the academic world to the labour market by involving non-higher education institutions in the consortia as associate partners (i.e. enterprises, Chambers of commerce and industry, public entities, research centres or non-profit organisations). HEIS collaborated with associate partners in Improvement of career opportunities relation to specific fields of study, for networking and thanks to internships promotion purposes, or/and to provide internships for their students. 2% 5% With regard to the latter, 39% of the participating universities To a great extent included them as part of their curricula.

In addition, 20% of the participating HEIs involved the private sector in their projects, out of which 85% believe that the involvement of the world of work improved the professional perspectives of the scholarship holders to a great or to some extent. In fact, this cooperation helped match the scholarship holders' academic profile, skills and competences with the job opportunities offered by the associate partners.

I.1.2.1 Overall Satisfaction with the Mobility Services

As in the case of students, the vast majority of the staff who responded to the scholarship holders' survey expressed their satisfaction with the overall services provided.

In particular, 95% of the staff appreciated the availability of the coordinators, while 93% were satisfied with the travel and transportation arrangements. The EMA2 consortia also ensured assistance with health policy insurance, visa/resident permits, bank accounts, language courses, social activities, and family related issues.

I.1.2.2 The Benefits of Mobility

Overall, the mobility allowed the staff to benefit from new learning experiences and international opportunities. They found that one of the greatest impacts General impact of EMA2 was on their professional career (75%) and on the on staff specialized knowledge (49%) acquired abroad, which turned

In some cases, Victory, Samoa mobility paved the way to new positions for (Master-degree seeking lecturer in Belgium) academic and administrative staff at the home HEIs. In others, these were the initiators of long-lasting bilateral cooperation and joint research projects between home and host universities and contributed to the creation of new university departments.

The vast majority of academic staff acquired new competences and a deeper understanding of new learning, teaching and research methods. Once they returned to their countries of origin, they could support their HEIs in the adoption of innovative didactics and curricula.

22 ERASMUS MUNDUS ACTION 2 PARTNERSHIPS : MAIN ACHIEVEMENTS AND RESULTS (2010-2018) PART I : GENERAL ACHIEVEMENTS OF EMA2TITLE

Likewise, administrative staff could get familiar with innovative administrative techniques and trainings. Their participation in EMA2 equipped them with the tools to boost the internal capacity of their home HEIs, notably in the field of international cooperation. The new institutional/administrative assets and the innovative working practices that the administrative staff was exposed to triggered systemic impact in their universities of origin. They often became key players in the creation and/or strengthening of international relations offices and other administrative support services.

I.1.3 Vulnerable citizens, Disadvantaged Individuals and Gender Balance: Equal Opportunities for a More Inclusive Society

The concept of inclusive education fostered by the Erasmus Mundus Partnerships gave the opportunity to benefit from international mobility to students and staff in a vulnerable situation (refugees, asylum seekers, individuals discriminated for their political ideas, racial or ethnic origin, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, etc.) and to disadvantaged individuals (people with special needs and/or from socio-economically deprived contexts). Breakdown of Target Group 3 per The action contributed to combating all forms of region discrimination and to spreading the values of tolerance and Africa, Western inclusiveness. Thanks to EMA2 these groups of individuals Caribbean Balkans and the could take advantage of an international experience and 4% Pacific 3% better career opportunities. South Mediterra Asia ean 24% While the inclusion of disadvantaged citizens was one of the 21% recommendations of the action, the involvement of individuals in a vulnerable situation - the so-called Target Central Latin Asia Group 3 (TG3) - was a compulsory requirement of EMA2. TG3 America 3% 31% Eastern grant holders account for approximately 6% of the total Europe number of scholarships financed. Most of them were from Iran, Iraq, 13% Yemen Latin America (31%), Asia (24%) and the South Source: EACEA database 1% Mediterranean region (21%).

(PhD mobility in Belgium) TG3 students and staff were hosted mostly by HEIs located in Spain (25%), which was chosen by many Spanish-native speakers. Italy (12%) and Portugal (11%) follow in the general ranking, but the HEIs from all EU countries welcomed vulnerable grantees based on their capacities and degree of involvement in the EMA2 projects.

ERASMUS MUNDUS ACTION 2 PARTNERSHIPS : MAIN ACHIEVEMENTS AND RESULTS (2010-2018) 23 PART I : GENERAL ACHIEVEMENTS OF EMA2

The participating HEIs undertook substantial efforts to reach out to TG3 grantees in partner countries. It is worth mentioning the launch of extensive promotional campaigns for this purpose and the adoption of specific approaches when selecting grantees in the final ranking lists (i.e. positive discrim ination based on equal merit). Out of the total percentage of universities which responded to the Partnerships' survey and involved TG3 grant holders (69%), 29% declared that they addressed individuals that were object of discrimination, while 27% targeted refugees. Another 27% involved internally displaced persons, whereas 11% included asylum seekers and 9% stateless people in the Partnerships.

In some cases, the involvement and identification of such categories proved to be a complex task due to the lack of good quality applications, administrative constraints or socio-cultural factors. For example, in the case of refugees, internally displaced persons and asylum seekers, these could not always provide evidence of their status or faced visa-related issues which prevented them from participating in the mobility scheme. HEIs also faced difficulties in reaching out to individuals, discriminated for socio-political, economic, racial, sexual or religious reasons. For example, in some regions of the world (i.e. Asia and Central Asia) the potential TG3 candidates preferred not to openly declare their vulnerable status as they feared to be socially EMA2 helped TG3 grantees improve their socio-economic situation stigmatized by their families and their community.

In order to tackle this lack of candidates, some 1% Partnerships sought the support of HEIs inside and 5% outside the consortia, the civil society (NGOs and other T o som e e xte nt 22% associations), students' associations and the local and To a great extent 44% national media. Informal contacts also played a role in I do not know

individuals. Not at all 28% All these efforts led to positive results. The targeted social groups were provided with scholarships across the regions of the world in compliance with the principles of social inclusion against all forms of discrimination. Moreover, the majority of the surveyed HEIs consider that EMA2 helped vulnerable grantees improve their socio-economic situation to some or to a great extent.

The action also achieved an excellent overall gender balance among all mobility types, with the involvement of 49.60% female grantees and 50.4% male grantees. Nevertheless, participation of female scholarship holders in some mobility categories is not balanced, especially at post-doctorate (45%) and doctorate (42%) levels. Conversely, men represent Gender balance per region Female 44% of the scholarship holders at Mal e undergraduate level.

If we look at gender distribution 36% from a regional perspective; 44% 43% 54% 50% 57% 61% 59% this was perfectly reached only in 63% 66% Latin America. However, it is not the case in most of the regions, 64% 56% 57% where one of the two genders is 46% 50% 43% 39% 41% always under/over-represented. 37% 34% Women are more numerous in Africa, Asi a Central Asia Easte rn Ind us tri al is ed Iran, Iraq, Lati n Amer ica So uth Afr ica So uth ern Wester n three regions, namely Eastern Caribbean and Eu ro pe countries and Ye men Medite rranean Balka ns th e Paci fic Gu lf Europe, Western Balkans and South Africa. The reasons for gender imbalance vary in each region, although in most of the cases these are linked to socio-cultural factors hampering an even participation of women/men in higher education.

As observed in many EMA2 projects, the involvement in international academic mobility triggered a larger reflection within the universities on how to address internationalisation as part of the institutional policy. The active involvement in academic mobility had a snowball effect on the organisation of faculties and departments. Existing units were restructured and, in some cases, new departments were created. Moreover, specific internal regulations were set up to address the new challenges and institutional needs linked to the international activities of the HEIs. The examples reported by HEIs from programme and partner countries are manifold and cover a large variety of areas. For instance, Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (Ukraine) created a Centre of Baltic Languages as a direct result of participation in EMA2. Lund University (Sweden) created an External Project Office in 2011 to streamline quality assurance processes for all the projects they were coordinating. University Hassan II (Morocco) set up an office to assist and advise researchers and lecturers who want to submit research or educational project proposals.

I.2.4 Internationalisation of Curricula and Introduction of new Teaching Programmes

As an important outcome of the mobility experience, be it staff or student mobility, partner country HEIs gained valuable insights in new teaching techniques and learning approaches which nurtured significantly the reflection on the modernisation of pedagogy and curricula design within the universities.

For the vast majority of them this All EU Non-EU was to a great or to some extent directly attributable to the action.

In terms of credit recognition, more than a third of all surveyed non -EU HEIs (36%) declared that all their students obtained full recognition of the credits earned abroad (30% for EU HEIs). Another 39% of partner- country universities stated that many of their students got their credits fully recognised (51% for EU HEIs). Furthermore, around two thirds of all EU and non-EU HEI respondents declared that that there has been no case where no credits have been recognised at all (EU HEIs: 59%; non-EU HEIs: 70%).

The point of view of the institutions is also confirmed by the results of the Scholarship Holders' Impact Survey, where 84% of all grantees (bachelor, master, PhD and post-doctorates) confirmed that their credits were either fully or partially recognised.

In terms of recognition delays, more than half of the EMA2 Partnerships survey respondents declared that the transfer of credits was done either immediately after the mobility (23%) or within the first two mon ths upon return of the grantee (29%). Another 27% of HEIs stated that it took on average between 2 and 6 months to recognise the credits earned abroad.

Despite the positive achievements HEIs made in terms of credit recognition, there are still many obstacles which hamper full recognition. According to EU and non-EU HEI respondents, the main reasons for not recognising credits are university regulations, mismatch of study fields between home and host universities and national legislations. Another recurrent reason mentioned was the fact that students themselves did not claim their credits upon return to their home university. According to the replies from HEIs, this was more frequently the case for EU students coming back home from a partner country institution.

However, it should be stressed that Reasons for non recognition considerable effort was made by the considerable effort was made by the 60% 53% HEIs from EU and partner countries to 50% 43% overcome these difficulties and to 40% 31% 33% 33% overcome these difficulties and to 31% 28% 25% 28% further improve the recognition 30% 23% 25% further improve the recognition 18% 20% 14% 11% mechanisms within the Partnerships. 11% 9% 10% Thus, many examples were reported EU 0% 28 where Partnerships from theERASMUS same MUNDUS ACTIONCountry 2 PARTNERSHIPSField of I do not : MAINLearning ACHIEVEMENTSStudents do ANDUniversity RESULTS (2010-2018)Non-EU region had combined their efforts in legislation study know agreements not claim regulations differ ent not in their credits organising specific workshops on the from study place/not topic.

As a result of the mobility, the research capacities and skills could be improved, which was confirmed by nearly all participating HEIs.

In this regard, it is worth mentioning the EMA2 cooperation projects with industrialised countries and Gulf which are mainly restricted to academic mobility of doctoral candidates, post-doctorates and academic staff from EU HEIs. Even though they are much smaller in terms of mobility opportunities, these projects contributed significantly to establish strong and lasting international research networks in specific thematic fields.

I.3 Main Achievements at National and Regional Level

Quantitative and qualitative data show that the Partnerships produced successful results at individual and institutional level, but they also triggered a systemic impact at national and regional 2 level in Europe and partner countries.

In some cases, the action triggered changes in the national policy frameworks and legislation relating to the internationalisation of higher education. In fact, the Partnerships could contribute to cooperation between the academic world and national authorities for central reforms. The participation of governmental actors (i.e. Ministries and agencies) as associate partners also helped HEIs build bridges with the policy-makers. Moreover, EMA2 helped dismantle legislative obstacles linked to the implementation of the Bologna principles worldwide (i.e. recognition of credits and diplomas, joint degrees).

In addition, EMA2 favoured the strengthening of intra-regional cooperation. Universities collaborated with HEIs from the same geographical area and got started with new academic links and activities. Through the mobility projects, HEIs could build common ground for long-term intra-regional cooperation and mutual trust. The Partnerships also brought indirect socio-economic benefits to the targeted regions of the world by fostering the social inclusion of individuals and HEIs.

I.3.1 Favourable changes in National Policies and Legislation on the Internationalisation of Higher Education Almost a decade of academic cooperation and In the partnership survey, it was reported that the Code of debate under EMA2 contributed to reforming the Republic of Belarus on Education entered into force in national policies and legislation on the September 2011 introduced the term “academic mobility” internationalisation of higher education in EU (Art. 121) for the first time. This was possible thanks to the and non-EU countries. participation of the Belarussian HEIs in EU-funded mobility schemes since 2007, where the primary objective was the enhancement and simplification of international mobility The action influenced the national policies exchanges between Belarus and the EU. Moreover, the on the internationalisation and modernisation participation of this country in EMA2 supported the design of the country’s roadmap for the reform of the national higher of higher education by fostering a series of education system. A further step was the acceptance of reflections at university level, which were Belarus to formally join the Bologna Process and the subsequently brought to the attention of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) at Yerevan international decision-makers. Discussions covered ministerial conference in 2015. topics such as the streamlining of the Bologna process worldwide and the concrete adoption of its principles, especially in partner countries. An example of the role HEIs had in Western Balkans to assist central governments in law-making is offered by the University With reference to international exchanges, of Banja Luka (Republic of Srpska, Bosnia & Herzegovina). The the search for harmonised solutions to know-how gained by the consortium through the participation in remove institutional barriers to the the Erasmus Mundus Partnerships was crucial in the implementation of the EMA2 mobility development of a law introduced by the Ministry of Education projects pushed non-EU universities to and Culture of the Republic of Srpska: "Rules on Co-Financing of the Mobility of Students and Academic Staff". The objective of address their national governments in order this law is to encourage and promote academic mobility. to claim more favourable provisions in the domain.

The first generation of EMA2 projects running in South Africa started at a time when only limited information The various Calls for proposals were linked to a about the EU academic recognition system was available number of national priorities in South Africa.

In this respect, the opportunities. For this reason, participation of projects, and in particular the EM2SA project, have played historically disadvantaged institutions (HDIs) in South Africa was particularly encouraged and even an instrumental role. Thanks to them, all partner HEIs in formally required (each partnership had to involve at South Africa got familiar with the ECT System and least three from a list of 12 institutions provided in started using it as a basis for learning agreements, the Guidelines to the Calls).

Part III Conclusions and Recommendations PART III : CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMANDATIONS

III. Conclusions & Recommendations

The analysis carried out in this document is based on the material collected during the implementation of the projects and two surveys targeting the scholarships holders' and institutions involved in the Partnerships. It also relies on the conclusions of the closing conference "10 Years of Erasmus Mundus Partnerships (2007- 2017)" (Brussels, 8-9 February 2017) which gathered more than 100 stakeholders such as project coordinators, representatives from partner-country HEIs, students and field experts, including representatives from regional bodies and student organisations. The sessions and workshops highlighted the challenges ahead and came up with recommendations for universities, EU and national policy makers for the future.

Overall, all stakeholders concerned confirmed that the Erasmus Mundus Action 2 fulfilled its main objectives. Mobility was considered a unique opportunity for students and staff from Europe and partner coun tries. It contributed to the empowerment of human capital worldwide by enhancing the participants' abilities, boosting their profile on the labour market and increasing their adaptability to multicultural environments.

For the institutional stakeholders the action also paved the way for fruitful cooperation between EU and partner country HEIs and brought the importance of mobility to the attention of the academic community and policy makers worldwide. The EMA2 projects gathered universities from different regions of the world and with different levels of expertise in international cooperation. The projects gave them the opportunity to learn from each other by sharing experiences and sorting common challenges together. The relatively long duration of the Partnerships (4 years) also facilitated the creation and consolidation of academic relations among the participating universities and favoured mutual trust. At present, these collaborations form a solid ground which allows universities to continue participating in the international mobility actions, financed under the Erasmus+ programme.

Despite the very positive results achieved by EMA2, several challenges still need to be tackled in the years to come and a series of recommendations can be formulated for the attention of the institutions and policy makers:

Recommendations at institutional level

 Universities agree that nowadays it is crucial to have solid internationalisation strategies. EMA2 made them aware of the fact that international mobility schemes should be an integral part of such strategies. Nevertheless, the latter should be based on a clear understanding of the needs, priorities and the objectives HEIs intend to achieve through international exchanges in the short and long run. In this context, universities should commit to remove internal regulations and barriers which hamper the implementation of international mobility.

 EU and partner country HEIs should strengthen cooperation between the academic world and the labour market including in the framework of mobility schemes. Exchanges should include professional counselling and career coaching, but also traineeship opportunities and work experiences to facilitate access to the world of work. To this purpose, stronger links should be established especially with business.

 EMA2 insisted on the importance for both EU and partner-country HEIs to make all the necessary arrangements to provide adequate support services to students and staff on mobility upon their arrival, during their stay and after their departure (visa facilitation, language services, counselling, career guidance, follow-up on recognition of credits and diplomas). Efforts should continue in the years to come, particularly in those universities that have faced several challenges during the implementation of the Partnerships.

84 ERASMUS MUNDUS ACTION 2 PARTNERSHIPS : MAIN ACHIEVEMENTS AND RESULTS (2010-2018) PART III : CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMANDATIONSTITLE

 Quality assurance is one of the main challenges in the years to come and all HEIs should commit to ensuring high quality standards. Quality assurance arrangements should be part of international mobility schemes to ensure a modern and innovative academic offer and top level administrative and support services. The challenge at stake is to guarantee excellence in the academic preparation of the incoming and outgoing students and staff, and increase the visibility, attractiveness and competitiveness of universities.

Recommendations at national level

 A stronger commitment of national authorities is needed towards reforms in higher education and the adaption of legislative frameworks in support of international mobility and cooperation. Harmonisation of rules and practices among HEIs from the same country is also a prerequisite.

 Further efforts need to be invested in the field of recognition of credits and diplomas especially in partner countries. National governments should commit to facilitate recognition of credits and diplomas and define clear policy frameworks and coherent legislations. Autonomy needs to be provided to HEIs to allow them to implement relevant mechanisms and measures. Likewise, staff mobility abroad must be considered as a fully-fledged experience and adequate support mechanisms should be put in place.

 Visa-related issues remain a complex topic. Whereas the EU is committed to provide support, more needs to be done at national level to ensure the mobility of human capital worldwide.

Recommendations at EU level

 Cooperation between the EU and partner country HEIs in international mobility is highly valued by the stakeholders, institutions and individuals. Mobility schemes should provide multilateral cooperation opportunities to universities worldwide and finance broad academic consortia to allow HEIs to enhance their networking opportunities, benefit from mutual learning and start academic cooperation beyond mobility (i.e. joint research and PhDs, self-funded mobility schemes, national/regional events, transnational projects, etc.).

 EU assistance to national governments in partner countries needs to be encouraged in support of national reforms. In particular, the Union could provide guidance and support to national governments in the creation of coherent policy and legal frameworks for recognition of credits and diplomas, hence fostering, where relevant, progress in the implementation of Bologna reforms

 International mobility schemes that are respectful of the social, political and cultural differences of the participating countries/regions, as well as of their needs, are essential for the success of these actions. Inclusiveness needs to be strengthened in favour of disadvantaged citizens (socio - economically disadvantaged individuals, people with special needs), and of students and staff in a vulnerable situation (migrants, refugees, asylum seekers, minorities).

 While progress could be observed, gender balance remains an issue to be taken into account in future mobility schemes, especially in regions of the world where socio-cultural constraints hamper the participation of women in higher education and international mobility. Specific measures should be adopted to ensure balanced participation of female and male candidates.

 Students and staff from partner countries face ongoing difficulties in getting visas to enter their host country. Further efforts need to be made at EU level to facilitate brain circulation.

ERASMUS MUNDUS ACTION 2 PARTNERSHIPS : MAIN ACHIEVEMENTS AND RESULTS (2010-2018) 85 PART III : CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMANDATIONS

To conclude, EMA2 offered an exclusive higher education cooperation framework and mobility opportunities relevant to the skilled manpower needs of the targeted regions and the EU.

The promotion of international cooperation between the European Union and partner-country HEIs, and in particular of institution-based mobility contributed to the mutual enrichment of nations and to a better understanding of peoples.

In a context of globalisation, EMA2 gave the opportunity to HEIs from EU and, especially, from partner countries to connect to the international academic community and to the global knowledge economy. Universities had the chance to build solid cooperation relations worldwide, which were the first step towards the international reality of the academia. At present, these collaborations are a solid ground which allows universities to continue participating in the international mobility actions financed under the Erasmus + programme.
