Conference: Durham: A World University Conference 2009

Dates: 7 December 2009

Abstract:

One of Durham's strategic aims is 'To be a socially responsible institution, working with partners to enhance economic and social development internationally, nationally and locally.' Chris Shiel will share her experience of internationalisation through setting up the Centre for Global Perspectives at Bournemouth University and in particular her work in the area of citizenship and global sustainability for higher education. The discussion will aim to answer the following questions: How engaged are we/should we be in the development of cooperation and capacity building? How can the university better support and manage this area of activity?
