Dutch municipalities must step up to fix housing problems for international students, group demands
Universities of applied sciences in the Netherlands have opposed a government motion asking higher education institutions to stop actively recruiting international students.
Vereniging Hogescholen, a group representing applied science universities, said that student recruitment from abroad was crucial to filling gaps in the Dutch labour market. It demanded a meeting with science minister Robbert Dijkgraaf to discuss the measure.
