Addressing challenges in higher education in the countries of Eastern Central Europe. In: Beracs J, Iwinska J, Kovats G, Matei L, editors. Central European Higher Education Cooperation Proceedings. Vol 12. Budapest: Corvinus University Digital Press; 2015. p. 40-8. (CIHES Working Papers; vol 12). Abstract
Addressing challenges in higher education in the countries of Eastern Central Europe
The countries of Eastern Central Europe are often considered to share important similarities in many areas, including higher education, to the point of representing a distinctive region on the global map. To date, however, there is no consistent corpus of research available that would expound what these similarities are about exactly, what is their origin, or their relevance for the efforts to advance higher education in the respective countries. This paper is intended to make a contribution both in a theoretical order, by identifying and scrutinizing briefly some of the key conceptual elements that could help understand whether it is legitimate and useful to talk about Eastern Central Europe as a “region”, and also in a practical, policy perspective, by raising questions and putting forward recommendations regarding how to address challenges in higher education in this part of the world. The paper focuses on the following questions: What justifies a discussion about Eastern Central Europe as a region? Are there common challenges in higher education throughout the region at present? What are they and how could they be addressed?

The report provides an account of the 2nd EUA Funding Forum, its main findings, conclusions, and recommendations. For a sense of perspective, the report includes short comparative references to the first edition of the Forum. The EUA Funding Forum is an initiative launched in 2012.

They included university leaders, administrators, higher education researchers, representatives of student organisations, public authorities (from the local, national, and European levels), funding agencies and organizations, and privatesector partners. The central topic of this edition of the Forum was strategies for efficient funding of universities.

The main conclusions and recommendations of the 2nd EUA Funding Forum summarised in this report refer to (1) characteristics of the current period in Europe with regard to funding of higher education, and (2) how to elaborate efficient strategies for funding.
