On\u00a021 July 2026,\u00a0Liudmyla Trushchenkova, Associate Professor of the Department of Public Health and Healthcare Management and Guarantor of the Educational and Professional Program\u00a0Management of Healthcare Institutions, participated in the\u00a0International Seminar “Quality Without Borders: Internationalization and Cross-Border Quality Assurance in Higher Education.” The event was organized by the National Agency for Higher Education Quality Assurance (NAQA)<\/strong> in partnership with Uzhhorod National University<\/strong>, with the support of the Embassy of Ukraine in Hungary<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The seminar brought together government officials, diplomats, heads of leading European quality assurance agencies, and representatives of the academic community. Discussions focused on the key aspects and challenges of internationalizing higher education, the impact of international cooperation on the quality and competitiveness of academic programs, and effective tools for strengthening internal quality assurance systems at Ukrainian higher education institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his opening address, Andrii Butenko<\/strong>, Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine, stated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Together with Ukrainian universities and our European partners, we discussed how to ensure that Ukrainian degrees are recognized equally in Ukraine and across Europe. For students, this means a tangible opportunity to begin their studies at a European university and continue them in Ukraine, or vice versa. It also means being able to find employment in their profession without repeatedly proving the value of their education. For universities, it opens the door to developing joint educational programs with international partners, particularly in border regions.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first time, Daniela Cristina G\u00ee\u021bulic\u0103<\/strong>, President of the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA)<\/strong>, and P\u00e9ter Levente Lakatos<\/strong>, Member of the ENQA Board, visited Ukraine in person. They also lead the quality assurance agencies of Romania (ARACIS)<\/strong> and Hungary (MAB)<\/strong>, respectively. Their wartime visit sends a strong message that Ukraine is recognized as an integral part of the European academic community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The National Agency for Higher Education Quality Assurance<\/strong> is currently leading this work in Ukraine. It is undergoing an external evaluation by ENQA<\/strong> and the European Quality Assurance Register for Higher Education (EQAR)<\/strong>\u2014effectively an assessment of its compliance with European quality standards. Successfully completing this evaluation will bring Ukraine’s higher education system significantly closer to full integration into the European Higher Education Area (EHEA).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
