ACA contributed to the broad consultation process on the 2030 Vision of Universities in Europe with the aim of informing and shaping policy developments in revitalising the European Research Area (ERA), towards a policy report in June 2020.

As an association of national organisations supporting international cooperation in higher education, ACA represents a multitude of agents facilitating collaboration, mobility and inclusion in the areas of education, research and development, within diverse national and regional systems, support structures and political landscapes. The paper states that this diversity needs to be reflected and addressed in the future European areas of education and research.
