International Relations Offices of the EUNICE partner universities met on 18 October in the University of Cantabria (Spain)

The International Relations Offices of the EUNICE partner universities held a coordination meeting of the PEER-IR View Erasmus+ project on 18th October in Santander (Spain) at the University of Cantabria. The objective of this project of EUNICE, the European University for Customised Education, is to create tools that aim to improve knowledge management within the International Relations Departments of higher education institutions.

This third meeting was an opportunity to coordinate the finalisation and upcoming publication of some of the tools being created, including:
– The “IRO benchmarking“, a tool taking the form of a series of questionnaires and turnkey data visualisation solutions allowing any partnership, consortium or alliance to map the operational and strategic information of partners.
A handbook for creating testimonial videos of mobility students that can be used by all higher education International Relations departments.
A guide for organising peer-to-peer training sessions for staff in universities.

Some of the tools are scheduled for release in December 2022. The consortium also agreed on a dozen more tools to be developed by summer 2023.

Beyond the tools’ development and release plan, the meeting allowed to discuss the dissemination events planned in spring 2023 and to shoot a promotional video that will be released soon.
