LEMONOC Conference

 
The conference offers experts and stakeholders in student mobility, exchange programmes and joint study programmes a platform for exchange and networking. We address the potential and challenges of learning mobility between the ‘Global South’ and the ‘Global North’. The focus will be on the requirements concerning partnerships and the institutional setup for successful learning mobility to the benefit of both sides. Keynote presentations will address the expectations and challenges, institutional processes and organizational enablers, as well as good practices and lessons learned from the perspective of sending institutions.
