Institutionalization processes of service-learning in European higher education
In order to understand the institutionalisation processes of Service-Learning in European higher education institutions, we kindly ask you to complete the following survey. Your contribution is very important.
These guidelines were built upon substantial evidence in different European higher education institutions gathered by the European Observatory of Service-Learning in Higher Education (EOSLHE).
The guidelines can be used to guide service-learning providers throughout the performance processes of institutionalizing service-learning in European higher education, but also may provide a general overview on how to proceed in situations where there are no specific policies that guide the steps to follow.
