Higher Education Reform Experts
The purpose of the National Teams of Higher Education Reform Experts is to provide a pool of expertise in order to promote reforms and enhance progress in Higher Education in the countries concerned and therefore participate in the development of policies and reforms in Higher Education in their respective country.
The mission of the HEREs is threefold:
• Support policy development in their respective countries by aiding modernization reform processes and strategies in higher education, in close contact with local authorities. This includes curriculum development, modernization of governance, management and functioning of higher education systems and institutions, and strengthening relations between the higher education sector and the wider societal and economic environment.
• Support policy dialogue with the EU in the field of higher education, possibly in synergy and coordination with the various policy platforms established under the Erasmus+ programme or other potential initiatives established by, and under the guidance of, the European Commission.
• Support Erasmus+ and former EU programmes projects by disseminating their results and outcomes, notably best practices and innovative initiatives, and exploiting them for modernization and development purposes.
