The European Commission has opened a call for proposals for the fourth phase of the Tempus programme, which covers the period 2007-2013.  The purpose of this call for proposals is to promote multilateral collaboration among higher education institutions, actors and organisations from EU Member States and partner countries, with an emphasis on the reform and modernisation of higher education. Tempus is committed to promoting voluntary convergence with EU developments in the field of higher education, drawing from the Europe 2020 Strategy, the Strategic Framework for European Cooperation in Education and Training (ET 2020), and the Bologna process.
