The Universität Leipzig is international. Around 28.500 students from Germany and all over the world are enrolled in a degree programme at the second eldest university in Germany. True to the maxim ‘A Tradition of Crossing Boundaries’ our Alma mater Lipsiensis maintains a great variety of successful international partnerships. The more than 2.800 foreign students are an essential part of the internationalscholarly discourse and a greatsupport for the development of the university into an academic institution beyond boundaries. The Universität Leipzig is all about innovation, interdisciplinarity, and – having 14 faculties – offers a wide range of study and research options. The Universität Leipzig was the “cradle” of many important figures in the fields of philosophy, music, literature, natural and social sciences as well as politics. Nietzsche gained his basic knowledge in philosophy at the Universität Leipzig from 1865 onwards, Wagner’s talent for music was nurtured and broadened here, and Verónica Michelle Bachelet Jeria, the first female President of Chile, started her career in Leipzig pursuing a degree in German and Medical Studies.

Overview
In order to provide an interchange platform to integrate resources and facilitate mutual research cooperation among SATU member universities, SATU International Secretariat launches the SATU Joint Research Scheme.
The SATU Joint Research Scheme initiates the engagement and mutual cooperation of researchers within the SATU member universities through integration of academic resources and linkage of research interests among researchers of the region. The aim of the scheme is to increase the quality, quantity and profile of SATU research cooperation.
The SATU Joint Research Scheme serves as a platform to connect scholars who share similar research interests and integrate resources to support the academic research exchanges within SATU member universities.
Project Principal Investigators might be invited for a presentation about the Project in the 2016 SATU Presidents’ Forum to present the work of the joint research teams under the scheme, and to promote the awareness of and involvement in collaborative opportunities in the region.
OrangeASEAN is in initiative from the Dutch embassies in Southeast-Asia. It is a three week pop-up company consisting of talented students and young professionals from both the Netherlands and Southeast Asia.

What is SHARE?
SHARE is an EU Grant funded project with an overarching objective to strengthen regional cooperation, enhance the quality, competitiveness and internationalisation of ASEAN higher education institutions and students, contributing to an ASEAN Community beyond 2015. The main aim is to enhance cooperation between the EU and the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) and to create lasting benefits from the harmonisation of higher education across ASEAN.
Who are the partners and what are they going to deliver?
A consortium led by British Council, comprising the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), EP-Nuffic, Campus France, the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA) and the European University Association (EUA) will be working between 2015 and 2018 with ASEAN counterparts to implement SHARE. There are 3 main components (called Result Areas) during the implementation of SHARE, as follows:
• Result 1 – Policy Dialogues: Led by British Council
• Result 2a and 2b – ASEAN Qualifications Reference Frameworks and ASEAN Quality Assurance: Led by DAAD working with European partners ENQA and EUA
• Result 3a – ASEAN Credit Transfer System (ACTS) & Result 3b – ASEAN-EU Credit Transfer Systems (AECTS): Led by Campus France
• Result 3c ACTS & AECTS Student Mobility with Scholarships: Led by EP-Nuffic
Who are the main Stakeholders?
• The European Union (EU), represented by the European Commission in Jakarta
• ASEAN Secretariat in general, represented by Education, Youth and Training Division (EYTD)
Who are the target groups?
SHARE is aimed at a cluster of target groups and beneficiaries. At regional level, these include ASEAN agencies involved in the harmonisation of higher education sectors such as:
• ASEM
• AUN
• AQAFHE Task Forces
• AQAN
• AQRF
• SEAMEO RIHED
At national level, target groups include:
• government departments responsible for overseeing higher education sector
• university leaders associations
• higher education institutions with ambitions for internationalisation and desire to improve the quality of education provision
Students and employers will directly benefit from SHARE as recipients of quality academic programmes delivering higher level skills and knowledge, improved mobility (borderless education) and enhanced employability skills.
What are the impact?
By the end of SHARE in early 2019, the following outcomes are expected in higher education in ASEAN member states:
• Increased and enhanced mobility for university students across ASEAN through improved qualification frameworks, quality assurance, an ASEAN-wide credit transfer system and scholarship scheme.
• Improved equality in opportunities for exchange, as students benefit from SHARE’s technical assistance across ASEAN member countries, thereby improving connectivity across higher education in ASEAN.
• Strengthened ties between ASEAN universities and increasing opportunities for EU-ASEAN university partnerships.
