Electronic Workshop on Future Higher Ed.
Registration is free.
The purpose of this electronic workshop is to explore and articulate visions of future higher education and learning through extensive discussions involving all kinds of actors from both academic and non-academic institutions. Academic institutions are increasingly under pressure to develop new modes of research and training that are better suited to addressing pressing global and regional problems. This pressure has led to calls for expanding and strengthening interdisciplinary research and training programmes, academic cooperation that transcends national boundaries, and creation of networks that link various academic and non-academic institutions. It also operates through networks of higher education institutions in many countries, thus establishing collaborative links with other academic institutions and international organizations.
