The European Qualifications Passport for Refugees presented at UNESCO General Conference high level event

On 15 November 2019, the Council of Europe-led European Qualifications Passport for Refugees (EQPR) was presented as an example of good practice during a UNESCO General Conference high level event in Paris. The conference aimed at introducing the UNESCO Qualifications Passport for Refugees and Vulnerable Migrants. The Council of Europe, Norwegian Agency for Quality Assurance in Education (NOKUT) and the UNHCR are contributing to the development of this new tool.

The Head of the Council of Europe Education Department, Sjur Bergan, participated in a panel discussion where he emphasised the need for the recognition of refugees’ qualifications to be a normal state of affairs, not just a special project down the road. Anwar Horani, the first refugee to receive the EQPR, shared her experience during a panel discussion with experts in education qualifications assessment.
