Τα κριτήρια, τους δείκτες ποιότητας και τα επιτεύγματα για την κατανομή της ετήσιας χρηματοδότησης των Πανεπιστημίων ορίστηκαν εκ νέου, με Υπουργική Απόφαση της Υπουργού Παιδείας και Θρησκευμάτων Νίκης Κεραμέως και του Υφυπουργού Παιδείας και Θρησκευμάτων Άγγελου Συρίγου.

Υπενθυμίζεται ότι ως το 2019 η χρηματοδότηση των ΑΕΙ ήταν αποτέλεσμα αυθαίρετης απόφασης του εκάστοτε Υπουργού δίχως δεσμευτικά κριτήρια, κάτι που δεν ισχύει πλέον. Ήδη εδώ και δύο χρόνια η κατανομή της ετήσιας τακτικής χρηματοδότησης των ΑΕΙ πραγματοποιείται βάσει αντικειμενικών κριτηρίων, ενώ από το τρέχον οικονομικό έτος, βάσει αντικειμενικών ΚΑΙ ποιοτικών κριτηρίων, ο καθορισμός των οποίων βασίζεται σε εισήγηση της Εθνικής Αρχικής Ανώτατης Εκπαίδευσης, με την ουσιαστική συμβολή της Συνόδου Πρυτάνεων και των ΑΕΙ.

Ειδικότερα, με τη νέα Απόφαση, η τακτική χρηματοδότηση κατανέμεται ως ακολούθως:Το 80% της τακτικής χρηματοδότησης κατανέμεται βάσει αντικειμενικών κριτηρίων με στόχο την κάλυψη των πραγματικών αναγκών κάθε Ιδρύματος, λαμβάνοντας παράλληλα υπόψη τις ιδιαιτερότητές του, με σταθμισμένα κριτήρια βάσει συντελεστών βαρύτητας.

Απαιτήσεις εργαστηριακού εξοπλισμού των Τμημάτων του ΑΕΙ (15%)
Γεωγραφική διασπορά του ΑΕΙ (8%)
Το μόνιμο προσωπικό (Μέλη ΔΕΠ, ΕΔΙΠ, ΕΕΠ, ΕΤΕΠ και διοικητικού προσωπικού) (15%)
Έκτακτο προσωπικό υποστήριξης - ανελαστικές δαπάνες (συνεργεία φύλαξης, καθαριότητας, συντήρησης κλπ) (15%)
Κατανομή Τακτικού Προϋπολογισμού του προηγούμενου οικονομικού έτους (5%).Το 20% της τακτικής χρηματοδότησης κατανέμεται με ποιοτικά κριτήρια και δείκτες ποιότητας και επιτευγμάτων των ΑΕΙ, που αφορούν σε πέντε επιμέρους ενότητες, εκ των οποίων κάθε ΑΕΙ αξιολογείται σε τρεις. Η κατανομή της χρηματοδότησης από το ΥΠΑΙΘ πραγματοποιείται κατόπιν εισήγησης της ΕΘΑΑΕ, η οποία υποβάλλεται στον Υπουργό Παιδείας και Θρησκευμάτων ως τις 15 Σεπτεμβρίου, βάσει αξιολόγησης των εκθέσεων κάθε Ιδρύματος. Η Μονάδα Διασφάλισης Ποιότητας (ΜΟΔΙΠ) κάθε Πανεπιστημίου είναι αρμόδια για την εποπτεία και την ευθύνη πληρότητας και αξιοπιστίας των υποβαλλόμενων στοιχείων. Οι πέντε ενότητες, με τα επιμέρους κριτήριά τους, είναι οι εξής:Ενότητα Α: Συνεχής βελτίωση των βασικών ακαδημαϊκών δραστηριοτήτων του ΑΕΙ

Η ενότητα αυτή είναι υποχρεωτική για όλα τα ΑΕΙ, τα οποία καλούνται να επιλέξουν δύο επιπλέον από τις κάτωθι τέσσερις:Ενότητα Β: Ερευνητική δραστηριότητα, αριστεία στην έρευνα και επιδόσεις του επιστημονικού προσωπικού
Ενότητα Γ: Διασύνδεση με την κοινωνία, την αγορά εργασίας, και αξιοποίηση της παραγόμενης γνώσης
Ενότητα Δ: Διεθνοποίηση
Ενότητα Ε: Ποιότητα πανεπιστημιακού περιβάλλοντος

Η Υπουργός Νίκη Κεραμέως δήλωσε:

«Συνεχίζεται η αντικειμενική και αξιοκρατική χρηματοδότηση των Ανώτατων Εκπαιδευτικών Ιδρυμάτων μας, η οποία διασφαλίζει αφ’ ενός τη διαφάνεια και το δίκαιο τρόπο κατανομής του τακτικού προϋπολογισμού -ο οποίος, σημειωτέον, είναι αυξημένος περίπου κατά 14,5% σε σχέση με πέρυσι-, αφ’ ετέρου την κινητροδότηση της διαρκούς βελτίωσης και αναβάθμισης της τριτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης. Υπόψη λαμβάνονται τόσο οι πραγματικές τους ανάγκες όσο και κριτήρια ποιοτικής αξιολόγησης, σε τομείς που και τα ίδια τα ΑΕΙ επιλέγουν, σε ένα πλαίσιο ενισχυμένης αυτονομίας και ελεύθερης επιλογής των πεδίων στα οποία τα Πανεπιστήμιά μας μπορούν και επιθυμούν να διαπρέψουν.»

Invitation letter by President Charles Michel to the members of the European Council

 

Press material Monday 20 June 2022   ● European Council   20/06/2022 19:09 | Press release | Invitation letter by President Charles Michel to the members of the European Council ahead of their meeting on 23 and 24 June 2022   Dear colleagues, With war back in Europe, we have taken unprecedented action, projecting the EU's geopolitical clout. We now need to take further steps to strengthen our continent’s security and stability. This will be the main focus of our European Council meeting on 23-24 June. Now is the time to acknowledge that the future of Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia lies within the EU. I will invite you to grant candidate status to Ukraine and Moldova. In parallel, we will continue to provide Ukraine with strong humanitarian, military, economic and financial support. The Western Balkans are important to the EU, and the EU is important to the Western Balkans. We must therefore re-energise the enlargement process and advance the integration of our Western Balkan partners. We will meet them before our formal European Council. Peace, security and prosperity in a rules-based international order are values the EU shares with other European partners. The idea of a European political community has been presented to foster political dialogue and cooperation. We will engage in a strategic discussion on how to reinforce our relations to address issues of common interest. The consequences of the war are being felt far beyond our region. Russia is weaponising food supplies, stealing grain, blocking ports and turning Ukrainian farmlands into battlefields. This affects many countries, especially in Africa, risking famine and political and social instability. Building on our efforts to help Ukraine export its grain, we will discuss further measures to tackle these issues. The Conference on the Future of Europe has involved European citizens and made proposals aiming at improving the functioning of our Union. Proper follow-up will be needed. The current situation requires an in-depth discussion during our Euro Summit, in the presence of the President of the European Central Bank and the President of the Eurogroup. We will also have to determine how we want to move forward on the Banking Union and Capital Markets Union. We will meet on Thursday 23 June at 9:30 with the Leaders of the Western Balkans. We will then continue with our European Council meeting, which will start at 15:00 with our traditional exchange of views with the President of the European Parliament. I look forward to seeing you in Brussels. Video message of President Charles Michel Invitation letter from President Charles Michel

Press material Monday 20 June 2022

● Council of the EU   20/06/2022 15:06 | Press release | Joint press statement – 9th Association Council meeting between Egypt and the European Union   The ninth meeting of the Association Council of the European Union and Egypt took place in Luxembourg on 19 June 2022. The event confirmed the robust and multifaceted partnership between the two parties. The Association Council adopted new Partnership Priorities to guide the relationship until 2027, in line with the new EU Agenda for the Mediterranean and its Economic and Investment Plan and Egypt’s Sustainable Development Strategy Vision 2030. Guided by the Partnership Priorities, the EU and Egypt will further deepen their dialogue and their cooperation around three overarching priorities: (i) Sustainable Modern Economy and Social Development; (ii) Partnering in Foreign Policy, and (iii) Enhancing Stability. Both parties confirmed the great importance they attach to their relationship and underlined the strategic nature and potential of the partnership. The EU communicated that the Multi-Annual Indicative Program (MIP) 2021-2027 has also been approved. Under this MIP a first tranche of €240 M will be made available for the period 2021-2024 to support Egypt in the areas of green and sustainable development; human development, economic resilience and prosperity building through green and digital transition; and social cohesion, modern and democratic state in accordance with the priorities identified in the Partnership Priorities. This will allow the EU and Egypt to cooperate closely on long-term sustainable socio-economic recovery and accelerate the transition to a green and circular economy. The MIP will also support the implementation of the flagship initiatives of the Economic and Investment Plan of the New Agenda for the Mediterranean. The EU and Egypt are important trading partners. The two sides will work together to enhance bilateral trade relations, investments and Egypt’s further integration into regional and global value chains. The EU and Egypt will work together to enhance the competitiveness of the economy and support the development of the private sector, in both urban and rural settings. Particular attention will be paid to the promotion of women empowerment and the role of women and youth in society and the economy. Employment opportunities will be enhanced through continued support to the education system. Cooperation will also focus on the improvement in the delivery of basic health services by modernising the health care systems. Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to work together on climate change mitigation and adaptation, including the sustainable management of resources, with particular emphasis on the management of water, the development of sustainable agriculture, and expanding public transport networks. The diversification of energy sources and the green energy transition, including the expansion of renewable energy and energy efficiency actions will be a central element in these efforts. Both sides also indicated their intention to work on other crucial areas such as biodiversity conservation, combating desertification and land degradation, and disaster risk reduction.The EU signaled its support to the work of the Egyptian COP27 Presidency so as to ensure the success of the COP including an outcome which will deliver greater global ambition. The EU and Egypt confirmed the importance of cooperation in research and innovation in sectors such as energy, water, agro-food and health as well as in advancing digital technologies. Egypt and the EU remains committed to promoting democracy, fundamental freedoms and human rights, gender equality and equal opportunities as constitutional rights of all their citizens, in line with their international obligations. In this regard, both sides agreed to deepening their political dialogue on human rights. The EU and Egypt agree that civil society and the private sector are important and potent contributors to the implementation of their partnership priorities and can support the sustainable development process underway in Egypt. Combating terrorism and violent extremism conducive to terrorism represents a common goal of the EU and Egypt enshrined in the Partnership Priorities. Both sides welcomed their upcoming co-chairmanship of Global Counter Terrorism Forum (GCTF) starting in March 2023 and reiterated their commitment to address the root causes of terrorism with full respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, in order to successfully counter and prevent radicalisation and foster socio-economic development. The EU and Egypt remain committed to cooperating in fighting violent extremism conducive to terrorism and any form of discrimination, including Islamophobia, racism and xenophobia. The EU and Egypt underlined the importance of adopting a comprehensive approach to migration governance which entails creating regular migration pathways, tackling the root causes of irregular migration, combating migrant smuggling and trafficking in persons, ensuring dignified and sustainable return and reintegration. The EU and Egypt are committed to the protection of the rights of migrants and refugees. On regional and global matters, the EU and Egypt underlined that peace, security and a multilateral, rules-based order lie at the heart of their longstanding partnership. Recalling United Nations General Assembly resolutions ES-11/1 and ES-11/2 on Ukraine, which they both voted in favour of, they reaffirm their shared principles in line with the UN Charter of respect for international law, territorial integrity and national sovereignty, and the need to refrain from the use of force, respect international humanitarian law and solve conflicts by peaceful means as the basis for international cooperation. They condemned all violations of international humanitarian law and violations and abuses of human rights in conflict areas, and called for strict respect for international humanitarian law. The EU and Egypt expressed concern about the impact of the war on increased food insecurity globally, as well as on global supply chains and energy and commodity price hikes. The EU will support Egypt’s efforts to enhance its cereal production and storage facilities with €100 million from the regional “Food and Resilience Facility” to provide partial assistance to meet the consequences of rising prices of food and commodities. Given the strategic orientation of the partnership, the EU and Egypt are committed to reinforcing cooperation in foreign policy at the bilateral, regional and international organisations levels, notably in the UN and multilateral fora, including the Union for the Mediterranean, the League of Arab States (LAS) and the African Union. In this context, the EU and Egypt exchanged views inter alia on the Middle East Peace Process, Libya, Syria, Horn of Africa and the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam. The EU recognizes the pivotal role played by Egypt in supporting peace and security in the Middle East and Africa. The EU and Egypt reiterated that the only path to a just, lasting and comprehensive resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the two-state solution that ends occupation and leads to the establishment, of an independent, contiguous, sovereign and viable Palestinian State, on the lines of 4 June 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital, living side by side with the State of Israel in peace, in accordance with international law and UN Security Council resolutions. They warned of the danger inherent in the absence of a political horizon to end the conflict and emphasized the necessity of relaunching serious and meaningful negotiations to achieve the two-state solution and restore confidence in the Middle East peace process. They condemned the construction and expansion of settlements, confiscation of land and forced evictions of Palestinians from their homes, as illegal measures under international law, that undermine the viability of the two-state solution and the prospects for peace. The EU also welcomes the efforts exerted by Egypt towards becoming an energy hub in the region with focus on renewable energy, ongoing cooperation in the framework of the EMGF, and the implementation of mutually beneficial energy projects, including interconnection projects between Egypt and the EU. In light of the significance of the Nile as the only source of water resources and livelihood for Egypt in a context of its unique water scarcity, the EU and Egypt welcomed the UN Security Council Presidential Statement on the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) issued on 15 September 2021 regarding reaching a mutually acceptable and binding agreement on the filling and operations of the GERD. Reaching such an agreement as soon as possible is a top priority for the EU and Egypt in order to protect Egypt’s water security and promote peace and stability in the wider region. The EU stands ready to support African Union-led talks and to play a more active role, if useful and desirable to all parties, by putting forward its rich experience in the management of shared water resources in line with international law. With political will and support from the international community, this dispute could be turned into an opportunity for many people. Millions of people who live in the Nile Basin stand to benefit from an agreement on the GERD which would create predictability, and open the door for foreign investments in energy, food security and water security. The meeting was co-chaired by Josep Borrell, High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy / Vice-President of the Commission, and by Sameh Shoukry, Egyptian Foreign Minister, in the presence of Oliver Varhelyi, the Commissioner of European Neighbourhood Policy and Enlargement Negotiations, as well as the EU Member State Foreign Ministers Ioannis Kasoulides from Cyprus and Nikos Dendias from Greece and Daniela Grigore Gîtman, Secretary of State for European Affairs from Romania.

COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION update

 

Press material Monday 20 June 2022   ● Council of the EU   20/06/2022 13:52 | Press release | EU fight against terrorism: one group and three individuals added to the EU sanctions list over terrorism   The Council today decided to add one group and three individuals linked to Al-Qaeda and operating in the Sahel region to the list of those subject to restrictive measures against ISIL (Da'esh) and Al-Qaeda and persons, groups, undertakings and entities associated with them. The measures target Sidan Ag-Hitta and Salem ould Breihmatt, senior commanders within the UN-listed Al-Qaeda-affiliated Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam Wal-Muslimin, as well as its Burkinabe branch Ansarul Islam and its leader Jafar Dicko. The sanctioned group and individuals are responsible for several terrorist attacks, including against civilians, the UN peacekeeping mission in Mali and defence and security forces in Burkina Faso.

Press material Monday 20 June 2022   ● Council of the EU   20/06/2022 11:56 | Press release | EU- NATO cooperation: seventh progress report   The Council today took note of the seventh progress report on the implementation of the 74 common proposals endorsed by the EU and NATO Councils on 6 December 2016 and 5 December 2017, based on the two joint declarations on EU-NATO cooperation of 2016 and 2018 and the agreed principles guiding the EU-NATO strategic partnership. The report elaborates on the progress achieved between June 2021 and May 2022 by demonstrating tangible deliverables in all areas of cooperation. Since the first day of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the EU and NATO, EU Member States and NATO Allies have intensified their work and cooperation, demonstrating full unity and common resolve in condemning Russia’s war of aggression and supporting Ukraine defend itself and protect its population. The EU-NATO strategic partnership is more robust and relevant than ever at this critical moment for Euro-Atlantic security. In this context, the report underlines in particular that political dialogue and common messaging between the EU and NATO has been further enhanced, the well-established political consultations have continued apace in different settings, including through regular meetings between the EU’s Political and Security Committee (PSC) and the North Atlantic Council (NAC) and frequent cross-briefings in respective committees and working groups, and that agreed cooperation work strands have continued to deliver concrete results. The latter include among others: the newly-established structured staff dialogue on resilience; cooperation on strategic communications and countering foreign information manipulation and interference; continued efforts to ensure the coherence of output between the respective EU and NATO defence planning processes where requirements overlap; continued exchanges through the structured staff dialogue on military mobility; and dedicated staff interactions on Ukraine. Seventh progress report on the implementation of the common set of proposals endorsed by EU and NATO Councils on 6 December 2016 and 5 December 2017

Ο υγιεινός τρόπος ζωής «χαρίζει» χρόνια ζωής και προστατεύει από το Αλτσχάιμερ
Η νόσος Αλτσχάιμερ είναι δυνατό να διαγνωστεί με μια και μόνο εξέταση του εγκεφάλου, δείχνει μια νέα βρετανική επιστημονική έρευνα, η οποία χρησιμοποιεί τεχνητή νοημοσύνη (τεχνολογία μηχανικής μάθησης) για να ανιχνεύσει ακόμη και αδιόρατες αλλά χαρακτηριστικές δομικές αλλαγές στον εγκέφαλο που παραπέμπουν στη νευροεκφυλιστική πάθηση........
