EUA, in a Consortium with the European Association of Distance Teaching Universities (EADTU), the European University Continuing Education Network (EUCEN) and the European Access Network (EAN), is launching a new project entitled ‘Shaping Inclusive and Responsive University Strategies (SIRUS)’.

The EU-funded project is designed to support Europe’s universities in implementing the commitments made in the European Universities’ Charter on Lifelong Learning and thus to assist them in developing their specific role as lifelong learning institutions forming a central pillar of the Europe of Knowledge.

This project will offer approximately twenty universities with different profiles and interests in lifelong learning (LLL), and which are at different stages of LLL implementation, an opportunity to develop and enhance their strategic approaches to this issue, through interactive discussion with colleagues from all over Europe. At the same time, it will allow them to contribute to the development of policy recommendations for the European Higher Education Area.   

The participating universities will be selected through this call for participation and interested universities are invited to use the following application form. The deadline for receipt of applications is 11 December 2009, 12.00 (midday) CET.

Please visit the project webpage or email Michael Horig for further information.
