The Final Results Booklet on PAC recognition is out!

 

We are happy to introduce the final Results Booklet as a part of the transnational campaign for the PAC (Previously Acquired Competences) recognition!

AEGEE-Europe, in partnership with Together, Moving Forward - TMF, organised an online survey from 22 February to 28 March 2021 to gather an overall picture of the accessibility of European HEIs (Higher Education Institutions) for TCN (third-country national) students.

As a follow-up and to deeply assess individual experiences of TCNs regarding PAC recognition, AEGEE-Europe and TMF organised two focus groups on the 7th and 8th of May 2021.The online survey and focus groups were organised within the MaxiPAC framework - an Erasmus+ funded project aiming to maximise PAC of TCN students in European HEIs.

In the Booklet, you can learn more about the exact needs of TCNs seeking enrolment in European universities and the obstacles and good practices they encounter during the PAC recognition procedures.

Most importantly, you can have a look at recommendations given by our focus group participants, which will be incorporated into a standardised draft procedure for European HEI’s to ensure easier PAC recognition and a smoother admission process for the TCN students.


Consult the Results Booklet here.

Dirty Talk: The Women's Rights

Movement in Poland

 

In 2021 Poland tightened the abortion law, legalising abortion only in three cases: rape, incest and severe health risks for the mother.

Women took to the streets in Poland and protested for their fundamental rights.

Together with our guests Sarah Diehl (German activist for internat. reproductive rights) and a Polish professor for political science from the University of Warsaw we will try to paint a diverse picture of the movement and answer all questions you might have.

When: 07.06.2021 6pm CET. The event will be organized on Google Meets platform. Join the event via this link.
