"Madam President, the Bologna process has two key objectives that we support unreservedly. It enables compatibility between Europe’s higher education systems and it removes obstacles to studying and working in any other European country.
We view positively the report’s enhancement of the social aspect of Bologna, so as to ensure that no student will fail to take up higher education or to go on a university exchange for financial reasons. I myself did Erasmus in Germany and I know what it means to work so as to pay for your studies.
The key to the success of the Bologna process lies in funding for universities, which should have greater financial resources that are sufficient and stable, so as to guarantee excellent higher education. The report itself acknowledges that there are governments that are not offering sufficient financial support to universities. In my country, for example, education cuts are financially choking the universities of Galicia, which have ever fewer resources and opportunities for innovation and research.
Public universities should not be continuously questioned, or treated as careless and inefficient bodies. We must send a clear message to governments that they should make a firm commitment to public universities."@en1
