ADVOCACY FOR STUDENTS’ RIGHTS
The Center for Progress launched the “Advocacy for Students’ Rights” project in 2020 with the support of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). The main goal of the project is to promote the transformation of the existing education system and bring it closer to European standards and degrees. At the European level of education, we think about issues such as democracy in universities, the various founding models of education and science, access to education, and a long-term vision for education policy. The project is unique in that it creates a platform that discusses the problems, challenges, and ways to address the existing system. This platform will bring together thousands of students from across the country, as well as academic and scientific circles. Each of these people has the opportunity to voice out their visions and ideas that will be taken into account in each aspect of the project’s final reform.
