Regional Network of Universities

12 university factulties from from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo*, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia are participating in the project Preparing Future Teachers in the Western Balkans.

Lecturers and staff who are actively involved in teacher training at higher education institutions and universities are selected to join the regional network and in the years to come they will develop, test and disseminate new teacher education modules phasizing practice-oriented teaching promoting citizenship, democracy and human rights. 

The network is a tool to strengthen regional cooperation for democratic developments in education and to address common challenges and will serve as a platform for mutual learning and exchange of experiences with transformation of teacher education and education reforms. 

Participation in this project provides a good opportunity to exchange experiences with university colleagues from different countries in the region and work in education together to contribute to the changing of our region for the better. It enables us to make new contacts with experts and to encourage future collaborative initiatives in the field of human rights, citizenship and democracy, development discipline and training programs of teachers.
