Print this Article | Send to Colleague

Last week, the Working Group on Mobility of the Bologna Follow Up Group (BFUG) released a draft paper on the mobility strategy for the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) through 2020. The paper was developed on the basis of discussions in the working group meetings, and has been informed by the results of the BFUG questionnaire on mobility as well as other data collection exercises.

The paper consists of four parts. Section A gives a short introduction and quotes the latest statements on mobility that were made by Ministers in the Leuven/Louvain-la-Neuve communiqué. Section B gives the motivation for drafting an EHEA mobility strategy. Sections C and D contain the essential mobility aims and targets for the time up to 2020, and the measures that have to be taken to reach these aims, respectively. Both parts are to form the basis of a short strategy paper that the ministers responsible for higher education in the EHEA will be invited to adopt at the ministerial conference in Bucharest in April 2012.
