18th European Network for Ombuds in Higher Education Conference

Vítejte v Praze

(Welcome to Prague)

Dear visitors of this webpage! (and conference attendants)!

A very warm (electronic) welcome to you all on behalf of the Conference Planning Committee for the ENOHE 2023 Annual Conference, to be held at the Univerzita Karlova (Charles University) in Prague in June 2023. This is going to be the 18^th annual conference after the founding of the ENOHE network in Amsterdam 20 years ago. Hence the conference title is “From Amsterdam 2003 to Prague 2023. Higher Education Ombuds Offices: Reviewing! Reforming! (RE)Starting?”. Almost 40 high-level conference sessions will be offered during the three-day event including tracks on the past (“a long and winding road”), on gaining momentum (“lifting mists”), on overcoming shortcomings (“full speed ahead”), and looking into the crystal ball (“where to go”). Each conference day will start with keynote speeches on current hot topics in higher education and in society at large. Networking will be possible during breaks and meals. Social events for participants and spouses are also available.

The conference will be preceded by an optional two-day training event at the same location.

Charles University, the most renowned and traditional university in Central Europe, and ENOHE, the European Network of Ombuds in Higher Education, have combined their endeavours to plan an interesting event with many opportunities to meet long-standing colleagues and make new friends. Times have changed and are still changing (rapidly), and the challenges for our professions in higher education are manifold. Debating those changes and challenges over the three days of the conference will enable us to return home refreshed and empowered to continue our vital work in our own institutions.

Please join us in the beautiful city of Prague, and plan your visit to its surroundings and the whole country of Czechia in order to take additional advantage of your coming to the heart of Europe. We will try to keep your stay in town and your participation in the conference as smooth as possible.

Brzy na viděnou

(See you soon)
