The final policy and dissemination conference of the Access to Success project took place in Brussels, Belgium, on 28 September, 2010.
The event presented the project outcomes and recommendations to the political community in Brussels and to multi-lateral donors. A white paper of recommendations on European cooperation and coordination in capacity building with African universities was presented and discussed. Most of the topics addressed in the White Paper are probably valid for cooperation with most emerging countries in higher education. However, given the project's focus, they deal specifically with capacity building in African universities, Africa-Europe university collaboration and the Africa-EU strategic partnership.
The recommendations are timely, given the upcoming Africa-EU Summit and the various initiatives launched in the framework of the Africa-EU strategic partnership. They illustrate how a bi-regional stakeholder contribution to such a political process can actually take shape.
A stakeholder meeting was held prior to the event, gathering key contributors to the project.
