This important meeting took place on November 4 and 5 at the University of Innsbruck and was led by Barbara Taser and Mathias Schennach.

At this event, which took place again after two years, the topics were the focus of the exchange of experiences and current challenges in the internationalization of domestic universities. The participants, 19 people, not only discussed proven practices, but also about innovative approaches to promote internationality in the university landscape.

Importance of cooperation

A central topic was the strategic direction of the working group. The discussion about future cooperation with relevant stakeholders, including the Austrian Exchange Service (OEAD) and the Austrian university conference (Uniko), was particularly important. This cooperation is crucial to effectively promote internationalization measures at the Austrian universities.

The intensive discussions during the meeting should pave the way for closer cooperation between the International Offices. The aim is to adapt international standards in Austria through the joint effort.
