Regional Cluster Meeting “CBHE projects’ impact in the Western Balkans” was held on 22-23 October 2019 in Durres, Albania. The cluster meeting is being organised by EACEA, EAC and the NEO Albania in the framework of the CBHE action of the Erasmus + programme.
It aims at bringing together local stakeholders from the Higher Education (HE) sector as well as CBHE projects implemented in Western Balkans (WB) in order to:
- Discuss the EU funded projects/programmes impact on the WB HE sector in terms of regional cooperation, modernisation, accessibility and internationalisation of the HE;
- Provide local/regional visibility to the E+ programme and its funded projects, thereby contributing to maximising their impact;
- Facilitate exchanges of good practice, sharing of knowledge and networking of CBHE projects to enhance their quality, impact and sustainability;
- Reflect on the actual needs of the HE sector in WB and on the way the future EU education programme for 2021-2027 could address these needs.
Representatives of our project, Graham Burns and Nataša Papić-Blagojević, have participated at the meeting.
