The EAIE (European Association for International Education) was founded in 1989, and it shortly became an important European centre for expertise, networking and resources in the internationalisation of higher education.
As part of their international activities, EAIE organises annually one of the most significant international higher education conference and exhibition in Europe. The event is an important meeting point among international educators. This year Switzerland provided the venue for the 30. anniversary exhibition, where 6000 international educators and higher education delegates participated from 95 countries. Parallel the exhibition high quality conference sessions gave the possibility for sharing and exchanging experiences, best practices.
TPF has been participating on the EAIE annual exhibition and conference since 2013, with the aim of supporting the appearance of the Hungarian higher education and partnership building of the Hungarian universities. This year Hungary was presented as ‘priority country’ together with the Czech Republic and Poland. The collaboration of the Central European countries was introduced by a conference session, on which the national agencies drafted the similar processes in their higher education. Beside the priority countries organised a networking reception for almost 200 EAIE participants with the aim of inspiring the guests for partnership building with the Central European countries.
In 2019 Finland becomes the centre of the annual forum. According to the growing number of participants year by year, more than 6000 educators will participate in order to discuss the most important questions and results of the higher education, and create new partnerships in the field of education and research.
