The document summarizes a policy report commissioned by the European Commission that provides recommendations for increasing access to higher education in the EU. The report was prompted by EU targets to increase the percentage of the population aged 30-34 with a tertiary education degree. It identifies barriers to access such as socioeconomic background and lack of funding. Its recommendations include addressing access and completion in a systemic way, leveraging private funding, and using public funds to encourage diversity in higher education institutions.
This document provides an overview of internationalization strategies for universities in the context of globalization and the knowledge society. It discusses how globalization is driving changes in higher education and research worldwide. Universities are both objects and agents of globalization. The document also examines definitions of internationalization and how internationalization policies and rationales can differ across higher education systems. It proposes mapping individual university approaches to internationalization using the Delta cycle model to assess rationales, strategies, and outcomes. The goal is to help universities develop strategic partnerships, innovation, and changes to remain relevant in the global knowledge society.

Abstract:
Until now, human and social factors have not been very dominant aspects of transportation research. The general trend has been a biased towards more technical and engineering studies and transport economics. Nevertheless, there has been continuous social science research on the fringes of transport studies. For example behavioural psychology has been used in traffic safety risk management and human geography has been concerned with the interface between space, time, and mobility. There has also been a significant academic discourse around transport equity and the mobility and accessibility needs of transport disadvantaged groups, which has gathered momentum in recent years. More lately, sociologists and cultural geographers have begun to explore the embodied meanings and the cultural significance of different transport modes within our everyday social practices.
A number of scholars within the Institute of Transport Studies at Leeds have already forged important cross-disciplinary partnerships with other disciplines within and outside the University. In this lecture, I will explore the potential to further strengthen and exploit these new directions within transport research. I will briefly reflect on the opportunities for achieving this through mechanisms such as within the University’ core research themes, the new Social Science Strategy, other research University-wide supported initiatives and more informal collaborations. But more importantly I will be asking whether it is possible to use these inter-disciplinary collaborations to radicalise our research enquiries so that we are able to offer transformational solutions to overcome the currently environmentally unsustainable and socially unjust allocation of mobility resources within and between nations.

Mapping innovative learning experiences in the UKeLearning Papers
CREANOVA is an EU-funded project that aims to undertake research on specific conditions and factors which are present in creative learning environments and promote innovation. While innovation is a defined imperative for European learning policy, there is a lack of evidence on what constitutes meaningful innovation and how it can be fostered and applied in learning.

Adult education as a means to social inclusion in Nordic welfare statesJaakko Hyytiä
The document summarizes research on adult education as a means for social inclusion in Nordic welfare states. It discusses how adult education traditions in Nordic countries aim to provide equal opportunities and support those in need. However, current trends emphasize employability over broader learning. The research questions examine what cultural resources can help address needs of vulnerable young adults and the potential for adult education to promote active citizenship. Case studies from Denmark and Sweden highlight how organizations and emphasis on mutual respect can mediate educational and social needs. The conclusion considers whether adult education can re-gain or transcend its traditional role in enhancing equal opportunities and participation.
Universities are increasingly focusing on diversity and inclusiveness in response to more diverse societies and student populations. Key drivers include changing labor markets demanding highly skilled diverse workforces and policies promoting equal access to higher education. Universities are developing strategic approaches and implementing programs to foster inclusiveness such as integrating social engagement into curricula, encouraging civic initiatives, and considering diversity in teaching. However, diversifying academic staff and addressing challenges like refugees remain ongoing efforts for most universities.
The document discusses the concept of citizenship education in schools. It explores different definitions and understandings of citizenship, how young people develop their image of citizenship, and challenges in teaching citizenship in schools. Geography is proposed to have an important role to play in citizenship education through spatial concepts like human-environment interactions, globalization, and issues that transcend political boundaries.
Horizon 2020 and the social possibility: a Latvian exampleCristian Ciarrocchi
Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020) – in addition to the private investment that this money will attract. It promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by taking great ideas from the lab to the market.
This document discusses the impact of creativity and innovation on education. It begins by defining key terms like creativity and innovation, noting their ambiguous definitions. It then outlines the characteristics associated with creativity today, like problem-solving and lateral thinking. The document discusses how contemporary education focuses on developing each child's strengths and talents. It argues that fostering creativity requires loosening rigid education systems. Several positive examples of integrating creativity and arts into education are provided. Research evidence demonstrates how cultural education improves skills and motivation. The document concludes by recommending leadership, new teaching methods, and international cooperation to make creativity a core part of education.
