Launched in 2014, the research project involved eight public and private universities in Africa, Asia, Europe, and Latin America whose IQA systems could clearly demonstrate good practices and innovative features for other universities striving to replicate similar systems.

Representatives from each of the universities will be present at the Policy Forum, in addition to other renowned international experts in the field.

All of the case studies will be available download soon on the IIEP website.
