🌐🎓 Some weeks ago, DAAD German Academic Exchange Service and Institute of International Education convened a high-level roundtable in Washington, DC, uniting U.S. and European stakeholders to advance transatlantic partnerships in Higher Education (HE). This significant event built upon our first DAAD-IIE roundtable in Brussels last October, ahead of the EU-U.S. Summit. 🎯 The goals of the Transatlantic High-Level Roundtable were to: ◾ Map current opportunities to boost research, student mobility, and people-to-people exchanges. ◾ Discuss the importance of supporting and expanding programs. ◾ Explore the feasibility of a common framework for collaborative activities and share successful models of cross-institutional and multilateral partnerships. ◾ Identify the next steps to advance transatlantic partnerships in HE. 📌 Based on the discussion outcomes, IIE and DAAD decided to: ◾ Overcome the information gap in transatlantic partnerships by regularly providing focused and comprehensive state-of-play reports. ◾ Establish a digital platform to share existing opportunities in the field of transatlantic HE collaboration. ◾ Disseminate information about transatlantic exchange and cooperation to the wider public. ◾ Continue transatlantic roundtables to foster cross-sectoral and cross-country knowledge exchange and goodwill (next edition taking place in spring 2025 in Europe). 👉 The event report is now available on our website: https://lnkd.in/eGx-QaBT 🚀 DAAD Brussels looks forward to continuing the IIE-DAAD collaboration to jointly leverage the potential of transatlantic cooperation in HE, addressing shared priorities, and building a stronger, more connected future. #DAAD #IIE #HigherEducation #TransatlanticPartnership #AcademicExchanges
