EURASHE presented statement “Entering a decade of flexibility and diversity: a new momentum for professional higher education” at the EHEA 2020 ministers’ conference, held close consultation of higher education future developments, skills and digitalisation with top representatives of EC. EURASHE was strongly engaged in policy discussions within European structures, Bologna process, European Research Area and paid great attention to actual issues – European university initiative, skills agenda, flexible learning including micro-credentials, ERA roadmap. A number of activities were coordinated with other partners from higher education community, civic society, stakeholders, but also European and international organisations (OECD, Council of Europe).
EURASHE in its internal discussions and consultation with various stakeholders addressed a variety of topics from inclusion of PHE students, innovative learning and teaching, flexibility of higher education and relevant instruments (micro-credentials, recognition of prior learning), skills and competence development in quality work-based learning (WBL Charter for higher education). The role and impact of UAS in regional activities, their involvement in smart specialisation strategies were addressed widely. As regards research EURASHE promoted stronger international links, supported PHE institutions in their efforts to get engaged in framework programmes, by policy statement, awareness raising but also matchmaking for concrete calls.,

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
