education is planning to move forward on a global convention that would promote
cross-border cooperation beyond the regional level. The text is intended to be
articulated with the regional conventions already in place (including the one
for Arab states) and will seek to develop a global recognition system for
diplomas and degrees.
- UNIVERSITY WORLD NEWS: An Erasmus-style exchange programme for the Arab world gained ground at
the second Arab-Euro higher education conference held in Jordan last
June. One of the obstacles to focus on is the recognition of studies.
- NEW REPORT ON MIGRATION AND YOUTH: The chapter on “Migration and
Tertiary Education” indicates that the number of youth studying abroad is
growing rapidly, creating a need for international cooperation and regulatory
agreements to oversee quality control of higher education and accreditation
frameworks. It stresses dialogue
and cooperation among countries to acknowledge educational qualifications
obtained in other countries, improve quality and harmonise standards of
cross-border tertiary education, particularly by regional frameworks on
accreditation, qualifications and quality assurance.
