Strengthening Higher Education in the Water Sector for Climate Resilience and Security in Central Asia (HWCA)

Coordinator: Budapesti Corvinus Egyetem

Aims and Objectives:
The main goal of the Erasmus+ project “Strengthening Higher Education in the Water Sector for Climate Resilience and Security in Central Asia” is to solve problems related to the water sector in Central Asia.
Project Summary:
The Green Deal of the European Union stems from the realization that climate change and environmental degradation are an existential threat to Europe and the world. Climate change hits the water sector of Central Asia particularly hard: per capita water availability may reach water scarcity levels of less than 1,000 m³ per person by 2040. A better managed water sector could play a crucial role in the sustainable and green recovery of the region. It could provide a solid basis for economic growth, prosperity and the reduction of social, economic and environmental inequalities. Building human capacity is the first, indispensable step towards achieving economic and environmental sustainability of the water sector.

ERASMUS-EDU-2022-CBHE-101082829 - DEFA

Development of financial autonomy of universities in Kyrgyzstan (DEFA)

Coordinator: Kyrgyz State Technical University Named After I. Razzakov

Aims and Objectives:
The aim of the project is to develop a flexible and effective model of financial autonomy of universities, which will allow the institution to mobilize resources, manage them and use them effectively to meet the changing needs of society and the market in order to develop an inclusive, green, creative and fair country.
Project Summary:
Kyrgyzstan is carrying out higher education reforms geared at amending European standards in higher education management. Particular emphasis is placed on the adaptation of the Bologna process and European quality standards in higher education. At present, the transition to three-cycle education has been completed. A national qualification framework has been developed and approved. However, reforms of the universities’ management system so far have not kept pace. In particular, financial management systems are not adequately promoting university autonomy which is a precondition to cultivate innovative and competitive universities.
The development of alternative management tools to the old management models increasingly requires the expansion of autonomy in the activities of higher education institutions. The aspect of financial independence occupies a prominent place in the system of autonomy of the university. This project is devoted to piloting and expanding new systems of university self-governance and increasing financial autonomy. By means of studying the European partners’ experience with expanding their institutional and financial autonomy, a model for university financial autonomy in Kyrgyzstan will be developed, piloted and evaluated.
