We are excited to announce that based on a decision taken by the Higher Education Reform Experts South Africa (HERESA) partners in October 2023, the HERESA will now evolve into HERE-Africa. This wider network of institutions will function as an ecosystem for transforming Higher Education in the Southern African Development Community (SADC), premised on a foundation notion of the ‘engaged university’ and universities for impact. As with HERESA, the network will be supported by our EU partners and OBREAL, and currently, we are eagerly awaiting the outcome of the network’s first joint funding application to the European Commission which focuses on using entrepreneurship education as the vehicle for driving economic development within the region.

The network of Higher Education Reform Experts (HEREs) was established in the framework of the Tempus programme and continues to be supported through Erasmus+.
These experts constitute a pool of expertise to promote and enhance the modernisation of higher education. They participate in the development of policies and reforms in their countries and contribute to the training of local stakeholders. Their activities consist, for example, in organising and participating in seminars, writing articles and reports, or providing advice to individual institutions and policymakers.
