Quantify off employability and social well



Employability must be regarded as a concept that is outside the bubble of economic growth. Higher education can not be managed in the labor market, but by the needs of society. Higher education is a human right and, as such, it must be available to everyone.

European Union students, or ESU, recommended that our whole society come together with respect to the development of higher education. There is no single organization responsible for the global development of higher education. ESU see the development of higher education as a puzzle to be completed only when everyone gives their best, unbiased contribution.

Take steps now societal insertion in advanced instruction





The European Union (EU) called social dimension is one of the key points of the Bologna process from the student perspective. But what does it mean?

According to the ministerial conference held in London in 2007, social dimension encourages social inclusion, reducing inequalities and raising aspirations and levels of knowledge, skills and competences in society.

It also includes social diversity with regard to participation in and completion of higher education at all levels.

This not only sounds like an ambitious plan, but a very complex and perhaps rather unfocused one. However, it is easy to understand why it is called dimension. Almost all decisions made in higher education have a social impact.

Measure off unemployment - whose responsibility is it?



 When a huge budget cuts pressure higher education institutions to perform more with less, they have to justify the different purposes they serve.

Whether it is training people for active citizenship, facilitating social mobility, improving skills required in the labor market or performing high-quality research, these activities are weighted against each other in competition for funds and creating a more efficient system of education.

The rising unemployment of recent graduates in Europe stressed the needs of the labor market in connection with the reforms of higher education.

Foreigners in Canada - Journal of an international student



Including my home country of Pakistan, Canada is the fourth country in which I was educated. After gaining some college credit at home, I started off my journey as an international student follows an undergraduate degree in business in the United States and Dubai.

Although, I faced enormous challenges on several levels.

These challenges ranged from culture shock and adjustment to the new environment of racial discrimination. At one point I found myself laughing out loud when I heard a Canadian comedian Russell Peters said that the Middle East are today black people for what they had to go through since 9/11.

The degree of mobility + loans does not employment



Just a few weeks ago, the highest decision-making body of the European Students' Union (ESU) - The Steering Committee, composed of 47 national student unions from 39 countries - adopted a resolution calling for the abolition of the idea of ​​introducing a European Masters Degree loan guarantees.

Earlier, ESU expressed serious concerns about this new instrument, included in the new Erasmus for all proposals under the multi-annual financial framework (MFF) for 2014-20. ESU's detailed position on the program can be found here.

ESU has a clear policy of support favored as a means of student support through loans. This is related to our belief that higher education is a social responsibility that should receive public financial support.

In front of the reason of objection in Turkey



Four or five trees, another park. The current crisis in Turkey reportedly started because of them. Actually, this is not the case - issues involved transcend the environment. It's also not just about one person or one party; it was about freedom of speech, live independently and against dictatorship and restrictions on people's lives. Let me explain.

Justice and Development Party - the Turkish AKP - was in power since 2002, and has won three around the country in general elections. In every election thereafter, the government party took first place with an increased percentage of votes.

Tuition hike from touching and sincere treasure



Plans to raise tuition fees in Armenia to 30% can be confusing results of the Armenian people, as it would be to reduce the ability to take advantage of higher education.

Tuition fees have increased by 15% on average in May, many governments and universities. This is coated with economic development has given us students pay $ 1,048 in tuition fees for nearly a year nominal wage just $ 260 a month.

Armenian students already hard hit by the economic crisis and high unemployment, and the students are facing a grim picture of the future.
