On 2 November, following the Academy MA students’ excursion to the EU Delegation, Ambassador Eduard Auer, Head of the EU Delegation to Kyrgyzstan, and Mr. Raimonds Vingris, Head of the Political, Press and Information Section of the EU Delegation, visited the OSCE Academy. After a short tour around the Academy, director Dr. Alexander Wolters presented an overview of the MA Programmes and faculty development and together with Dr. Anja Mihr, DAAD Visiting Professor, proposed several directions for future cooperation between the EU and the OSCE Academy. Since education is an important component of the EU strategy in Central Asia, the distinguished guests expressed their interest in developing their collaboration with the OSCE Academy in coming years. First ideas touched upon possible internships, guest lectures, as well as increased involvement into the European Politics module taught at the Academy.
