Please find below an invitation and  call for proposals for the Linking economic and social development to post-secondary education in urban areas strand - co-organised by PASCAL and colleagues at George Brown University - within the programme of the 1st World Access Congress in Montreal from 7-10 October 2013.

We invite you to submit a proposal for a presentation or activity within this strand that will provide a framework for discussions and planning during the congress.  We are seeking inspiring and thought-provoking presenters to discuss strategies and best practices, and/or innovative approaches, initiatives, and programs that have been implemented to increase access to post-secondary education in urban areas.
