There are significant disparities between EU and non-EU higher education institutions in terms of administrative and institutional capacity to successfully carry out the main task of legal education and research. Individual efforts and academic achievements of scholars from this part of Europe are usually not accompanied by the appropriate administrative and institutional structures. This situation makes it difficult for these institutions and their staff fully develop their capabilities in both academic research and legal education.
ALF aims to help the Faculty of Law of the University of Belgrade – BGL (a Widening country institution) to become a widely known and soughtafter top-class European research institution, by raising its academic research profile and by strengthening its research management and administrative capabilities. To this end, ALF will provide a thorough and comprehensive three-year transfer of academic and administrative foundational knowledge from three leading institutions at EU level: The University of Genoa, the University of Surrey, and the Instituto de Ciencias Juridico Politicas da Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de Lisbon.
