This March, a new colleague, Jenny Nygård, joined the ACA Secretariat. As a Project Assistant, she will support the development and implementation of ACA’s activities, contributing to project work, analysis and member development activities, including technical and administrative tasks. 

Prior to joining ACA, Jenny’s professional background included a combination of work and internship positions in research and with brief experiences in higher education quality audits. Her experiences in international relations, internationalisation and administration of development cooperation programmes in higher education, as well as Nordic collaboration and mobility, have also fostered her strong interest in the focus areas of ACA. 

As an Erasmus Mundus student herself, pursuing a master’s degree in Research and Innovation in Higher Education, she finds it especially engaging to support the team with tasks related to the Erasmus Mundus 20th Anniversary conference “Beyond borders and Boundaries” on 27-28 May. 

The ACA Secretariat is pleased to welcome the newest member, contributing to the commitment to international education through the various projects she will be involved in! Further details about Jenny’s experience can be read on the website.
