This conference will explore the roles of adult education and lifelong learning in addressing social, economic and cultural divides between communities and higher education institutions. The purposes and effectiveness of universities’ civic engagement strategies and the role(s) of adult education are the subject of much current debate.
Around the world, universities are being asked how their values are best embedded within the wider arenas of the economy, culture and democracy and within shifting notions of citizenship and place. At the heart of the discussion are questions about the ownership of universities by citizens, communities, regions and nations.
