We have our sights on a future where learning will be truly international while also being individual to each learner.
In line with Europe 2020's 'Smart, Sustainable and Inclusive Growth', NWRC's European development strategy acknowledges the seven flagship initiatives of the Strategy and prioritises two initiatives in particular, which align best with the College's Strategic Development Plan for 2015-2018. These two flagship initiatives are:
• "Youth on the move" to enhance the performance of education systems and to facilitate the entry of young people to the labour market &
• "An Agenda for new skills and jobs" to modernise labour markets and empower people by developing their skills throughout the life-cycle with a view to increasing labour participation and better match labour supply and demand, including through labour mobilityAddress

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.
