 Recent years have seen the gradual movement of education from being a purely national concern towards strengthened co-operation and approximation on the international level.
The events that have taken place after the signing of the Bologna declaration have further sped up this process. In the early steps of the process, students were not listened to. Though recent developments have shown the importance of, and the need to listen to the students’ voice, there are still areas where students are not listened to. ESU's opinion on the matter The amount of recognition that has been given to the students’ views in recent times has increased tremendously and ESU wants this trend to continue. As co-operation on educational issues keeps increasing, so should the students’ influence on the process. There are however forums or institutions dealing with education where the students have not been included at all. The current talks on inclusion of education in the GATS treaty are one of the current and most striking examples. It is of vital importance that the students as well as the Higher Education Institutions are involved in all discussions affecting higher education. Related Documents Links Contact
