Objectives

This Erasmus+ KA131 project aims to further develop outgoing and incoming student and staff mobility with HOGENT's European partner institutions. This project supports the objectives around internationalisation as laid down in HOGENT's strategic plan 2017-2022 and 2023-2028. HOGENT realises social mobility; HOGENT educates future-proof students (a.o. international and intercultural, green and digital competences); HOGENT invests in a network of qualitative and sustainable international partnerships and develops a network of privileged partners; HOGENT wants to focus on professionalising staff. HOGENT's internationalisation policy plan opts for 3 ways to realise this ambition: commitment to internationalisation@home, international mobilities and projects and partnerships. The guiding principle in the use of Erasmus+ funds-is that all students can receive a scholarship. This is to give all students the opportunity to acquire international and intercultural competences through international mobility. HOGENT is also focusing on the new blended mobilities and working on a sustainable travel policy to encourage mobilities in the most sustainable way possible.
