Our agenda will allow us time to discuss issues pertaining to our networking activities, including collaborations and joint events, grant applications and reporting, and other topics that have come up via the listserv.
In addition, we will be hosting Jose-Lorenzo Valles, Head of Unit, EACEA.A1 for European Higher Education,
and responsible for Jean Monnet Activities, during the second half of our meeting. This will be an excellent opportunity to share with him an overview of our activities and discuss open questions surrounding funding opportunities.

Agenda:
1:00pm introductions and brief updates from each institution (I count 7 attending)
1:30pm prep for meeting with Mr Valles as well as discussion of best practices regarding: The Audit (and all sorts of other yuck).
2:15pm collaborations: joint speakers, network meetings (in DC? In Brussels, on the West Coast? How often?), Eurochallenge, Model EU, Brussels-Lux Study Tour/EU Brussels Tour, network coordination
3:00pm coffee break
3:30pm Jose-Lorenzo Valles joins us: each beneficiary introduces themselves and presents their slide (no more than 5 min)
4:15pm Mr Valles gives his presentation
4:45pm discussion
