HERODOT is looking to find third country partners for a new initiative in countries outside Europe under the Erasmus Mundus programme. Action 4 supports European co-operation projects which aim at improving the brand image, visibility and accessibility of European higher education; or which deal with the international dimension of quality assurance, of credit recognition, of mutual recognition of qualifications with third countries, of curriculum development or of mobility. Institutions from all countries in the world are eligible and activities may take place anywhere in the world. For further information visit the HERODOT website.
