Recommendation 2066 (2015)
Student mobility
1. The Parliamentary Assembly, referring
to its Resolution 2044
(2015) on student mobility, underlines the value of international
student mobility as one of the key objectives of the European Higher
Education Area (EHEA), and considers that the Council of Europe
should play a greater role in encouraging the adoption of measures
to foster student mobility.
2. The Assembly therefore invites the Committee of Ministers
to instruct the Steering Committee for Educational Policy and Practice
(CDPPE), through its informal ad hoc working group on higher education issues,
to:
2.1. develop guidelines and
identify measures to remove obstacles to student mobility, including those
regarding visas, social cover and residence and work permits;
2.2. encourage the harmonisation of administrative procedures
that have an impact on student mobility and disseminate good practice;
2.3. make proposals for strengthening the action of ENIC-NARIC
centres and networks (European Network of Information Centres in
the European Region and National Academic Recognition Information Centres
in the European Union);
2.4. consider a revision of the European Agreement on Continued
Payment of Scholarships to Students Studying Abroad (ETS No. 69),
with a view to introducing new measures for financial support and
make new recommendations that take into account the current trends
in Europe.
