On 11-12 December 2023 the MODUS project of the German Rectors' Conference (HRK) will host an international conference on “Recognition Culture in Higher Education. International Perspectives on Lifelong Learning and Student Mobility in Bonn, Germany.
The conference will highlight the relevance of both academic recognition and recognition of prior learning for lifelong learning, student mobility and the strategic development of higher education institutions. With a focus on European exchange, we plan to explore diverse outlooks on recognition culture as a concept and as practice and discuss projects and strategies at national as well as international level. The program features several panel discussions as well as keynotes from Peter Wells (UNESCO) and Maria Slowey (Dublin City University).
