The EQAF is an annual event co-organised by ENQA, ESU, EUA and EURASHE and supported by the European Commission’s Lifelong Learning Programme, is the main European conference on quality assurance in higher education, which brings together all key stakeholders in this field, such as higher education institutions, quality assurance agencies and students.

This event is a major contribution to QA in higher education and a flagship activity in this field. Since 2006 EQAF has continued to create a common European understanding of QA through a dialogue among different stakeholder groups without funding, thus only thanks to the commitment and the will of the partners to foster a dialogue on QA.

On this page you will find more information on EQAF, on the upcoming 8th EQAF, and on the past EQAF editions since 2006 (2012 in Tallinn, 2011 in Antwerp, 2010 in Lyon, 2009 in Copenhagen, 2008 in Budapest, 2007 in Rome, 2006 in Munich).
