Establishment of a Western Balkan alumni association would contribute to the exchange of
knowledge and best practices in higher education and wider community. This regional
platform would empower alumni to have their voice heard in the ongoing modernization
efforts in their countries, with the aim of creating stronger links between the labor market
and higher education, which would increase employability of new graduates.
Around 90 participants, including students and alumni, National Erasmus+ Offices from the
six countries of the WB PET, and representatives of youth organizations, attended the
conference in Podgorica and discussed the modalities and next steps for the establishment of future
association’s structure and funding. They agreed to continue the networking process and to work
toward defining a clear mission of such a regional mechanism which they would present at the next
year’s Ministerial meeting of WB PET…(link)
