“…The literature on the lifelong learning action line documents that it aims to ease access to higher education for people of all ages and education backgrounds by supporting the recognition of different forms of prior learning, including non-formal learning (Han, 2017). A few studies highlight the advantages of the implementation of this action line in the EHEA as it develops human capital (Šmídová et al, 2017) and facilitates upward social mobility (Marr and Butcher, 2018). Some studies such as the one by Lester (2018) problematise policy nuances in the process of the recognition of prior learning by explaining that there are different patterns of learning that take place outside formal institutions throughout the course of life, but which lead to the same outcomes in terms of higher education access.…”

This article belongs to a limited body of scholarship concerning inclusion in the Bologna Process. The Bologna Process aims to create the European Higher Education Area with comparable higher education structures within the European Higher Education Area member states. Unlike previous research that focuses on the implementation of one of the Bologna Process inclusion-related action lines (i.e. lifelong learning, student-centred education and social dimension), this article adopts a broader lens, and investigates the evolution of the meaning of ‘inclusion’ in the key international Bologna Process policy documents. This article argues that there is still a lack of clarity around the meaning of ‘inclusion’ in the Bologna Process, and the list of underprivileged groups that the Bologna Process aims to include in higher education, is absent. This article calls for an urgent review of this problem in the Bologna Process at the European Higher Education Area ministerial conference scheduled for 2020 which will set the agenda for post-2020 work in the European Higher Education Area.
