Prospective Signatories
Bringing in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) and HEI consortia as signatories to the Groningen Declaration is one of the stated aims of the Executive Committee. So, as HEI involvement in the network incrementally increases,
witness our lists of signatories, either by individual HEIs or by HEI consortia and associations. For 2016, these two consortia have indicated their readiness to sign the Groningen Declaration during the Annual Meeting:
We extend our cordial best wishes to these two prospective signatories, hoping that more will follow and join the ranks with our other signatories in the HEI Ecosystem:
