Being established in 1976, VLIR represents the Flemish universities. It serves as a platform to facilitate interuniversity cooperation and interaction with the Government of Flanders and the federal Government of Belgium in all matters concerning the threefold mission statement of universities (education, research and services to society). VLIR is the forum where the universities debate, learn from each other, join forces and formulate shared recommendations and solutions. VLIR is a member of the European Universities Assocati. The Interuniversity Development Cooperation (VLIR-UOS) is part of VLIR and receives funding from the Belgian Development Cooperation. VLIR-UOS supports partnerships between higher education institutes in Flanders and the South, stimulating innovative responses to global and local challenges. |
