The European Network of Ombuds in Higher Education has published its first yearbook. Discussions about creating a yearbook started in the mid-2010s, and plans became concrete when the network transitioned into an association. This initiative was included in the ENOHE Annual Work Plan 2024. The 2024 Yearbook is the first to offer reviews of emerging topics in Ombuds work and examine pending developments and issues related to the profession. Contributions come from colleagues across four continents, reflecting ENOHE’s international reach beyond Europe.
The articles cover individual experiences and developments within Ombuds networks in Portugal, the Czech Republic, and Latin America. They provide insights into reform and progress, tips and pitfalls for new Ombuds, and the challenges faced by federal and local Ombuds offices from the United Kingdom, Australia, and Austria. A contribution from the United States discusses creating an international framework for Ombuds research and practice. Additionally, there is an article by two authors from Canada and Luxembourg that explores reconceptualizing Ombuds practice to improve mental health. A historical chapter examines ENOHE’s journey from a network to an association. The authors include Robert Behrens, Dante Jaime Haro Reyes, Franco Parrella, Jorge Antonio Ribeiro Pereira, Anna-Katharina Rothwangl, Markus Seethaler, Ryan Smith, Jaroslav Šotola, Michaela Antonín Malaníková, Rosa Maria Vasconcelos, Berta Batista, Brent Epperson, Laura Lynne Armstrong, Guadalupe Barrena, and Josef Leidenfrost.
