This peer review report for Amsterdam was prepared for the OECD/IMHE Programme reviews of Higher Education in Regional and City development. The report concludes that Amsterdam is an attractive city and its HEIs are highly-regarded.

The way to do this is to build on the city’s competitive advantages and to exploit the excellence of the HEIs for economic and social development. These are the report’s key recommendations.
