Summary link to Recognition:
Quality standards are not another way of looking at recognition but they do support recognition. This paper provides a solid base for the improvement of education and training activities in and with the Council of Europe and therefore has a positive effect on recognition. The paper intends that the quality standards laid out should contribute to deepening and widening the transparency, accountability, reproducibility, sustainability, quality and innovation of activities so that the Council of Europe can remain a trend-setter and a provider of high quality non-formal education in the youth field.
