About the NewFAV project
The “New building blocks of the Bologna Process: fundamental values” (NewFAV) project is an Erasmus+ co-funded project coordinated by UEFISCDI and implemented in collaboration with the Norwegian Ministry of Education and Research. The project is supported by UNICA, the European University Association (EUA), the European Students’ Union (ESU), and the DAAD German Service for Academic Exchanges.
The project aimed to support Bologna Process commitments, align with the Rome Communiqué, and contribute to the BFUG Fundamental Values Working Group by proposing indicators for monitoring and assessing fundamental values. This included mapping existing international indicators, developing a technical framework for measuring these values, and piloting the indicators in four European countries. An Advisory Board oversaw the project, involving international and national experts. Additionally, the project explored micro-credentials’ role in social inclusion, in line with the Paris and Rome Communiqués.
