DAAD President Prof. Joybrato Mukherjee has commented on cur-rent developments in the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus and its impact on international academic cooperation.
The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) is responding to the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus in Germany by cancelling all major events until initially the end of April and limiting business travel or replacing it with digital formats. The measures are designed to protect scholarship holders, participating partners and employees, and to minimise disruption to funding activities.
Kommende Woche tritt das neue Fachkräfteeinwanderungsgesetz in Kraft. Der Deutsche Akademische Austauschdienst (DAAD) begrüßt das Gesetz, warnt jedoch vor einer Verengung der Debatte rein auf Fachkräfte mit qualifizierter Berufsausbildung. Beim Thema Fachkräfte müsste der internationale akademische Nachwuchs stets mitgedacht werden.
