One of the outcomes of the project was the production of an handout for section corodinators, explaining issues about accessibilty (attached).

A follow-up project for ExchangeAbility, including new partners, has been launched in 2010, with Youth Agora as an associated partner.

The ExchangeAbility project was run by EDF, ESN and Youth Agora in the academic year 2009/2010 and was targeted at making ESN an accessible student association and, therefore, improving the internationalisation of disabled students at their home universities.

A follow-up project for ExchangeAbility, including new partners, will be launched soon.

The call

The project proposal was submitted in the framework of the call 'Life Long Learning - KA3 ICT - DG EAC/31/08 - KA3 Multilateral projects'. The promotion of ICT for learning is one of the four key activities of the LLP's transversal programme, supporting actions that address general issues concerning two or more educational sectors. The actions are not about developing technology itself, but about the use of ICT tools to enhance learning environments and experiences, as a way of effectively integrating ICT into education. 

In 2008 the EAIE conference will celebrate its 20th anniversary. In these 20 years much has happened in the European higher education landscape. The European Higher Education Area is approaching fast, are we ready for it? The 20th Annual EAIE Conference will explore what has changed over the years and where we are headed in the years to come.

Youth Agora presented its view and current work done in the creation of a Higher Education Reform information platform.

This seminar aims at supporting the objective of 3.000.000 Erasmus students by 2011 through discussions and exchange of best experiences on virtual aspects related to mobility during three stages: before, during and after (mobility). The objective is to show universities in the targeted countries (new EU members) how ICT can be used to enhance the quality of the student and the university experience of exchange, which, eventually, will help to increase numbers (influx and outflux) of Erasmus students.
