The Bologna Process Follow-up Workshop is an annual workshop where medical students from all over Europe discuss the implementation of the Bologna Process in medical education.Together they voice the position of European medical students with the aim to advise the European authorities and medical faculties from the students' point of view

During these workshops, students develop statements to represent their views and perspectives, and to influence European policymakers and other relevant stakeholders in the process of development and implementation of the Bologna Process.

MEDINE2
MEDINE2 is a project under the European Commission for Education and Culture, also known as the Thematic Network in Medical Education in Europe.

It addresses Bologna Process issues particularly in medical education, assessing the current implementation as well as suggesting solutions for problems.
