Gutierrez, Evan – Educational Leadership, 2022
Many educators consider racial equity crucial but feel unsure what initial steps to take to start making positive change in their school. The interconnectedness of all elements of equity work makes taking action on one element difficult, Gutierrez notes--but we shouldn't let that reality lead to inaction or solutions that only involve adults…

Dirk Rossouw; Geoffrey A. Goldman – Transformation in Higher Education, 2023
The VUCA world which refers to 'volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity' forces higher education institutions (HEIs) to be aware and understand strategic drivers. Further knowledge of the interplay between strategic drivers, neoliberalism, and 'public good' can assist HEIs not to seize the notion of furthering the neoliberal agenda at…

Martin Oliver; Allison Littlejohn; Eileen Kennedy – European Journal of Higher Education, 2025
Universities may have coped with the COVID-19 pandemic, but we argue there are still important lessons to be learnt from that experience of coping. In this paper, we explore whether universities could improve what they do, rather than just returning to pre-lockdown ways of working. We do this by analyzing a series of interviews with staff,…

Anne Herrmann-Israel; Michael Byram – Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education, 2025
A comparative analysis of two approaches to education in two academic literatures in two languages is the basis for discussion of how education systems should respond to contemporary transitions in the world in an Anthropocene age.

John P. Wilson; Ronald Dyer; Stefan Cantore – Industry and Higher Education, 2024
Research of the main university stakeholders has only been of a cross-sectional or short-term nature thereby limiting our understanding of how universities have evolved as a result of stakeholder influence. Indeed, neglect of stakeholders in strategic planning may result in both companies and universities becoming less successful and less…

José Pedro Amorim; Thiago Freires; Fernanda Rodrigues; Joaquim Luís Coimbra; Isabel Menezes – Journal of Higher Education Outreach and Engagement, 2023
University social responsibility (USR) is a fashionable concept that is often presented as a paradox, with the implication that it can help universities meet the social dimension of higher education, without questioning the hegemonic meanings of academic excellence and the university mission. We draw on data collected through a focus group of…

Susan L. Robertson; Jason Beech – Comparative Education, 2024
Promising lines of scholarship have emerged on how International Organisations (IO's) deploy anticipatory techniques aimed at colonising the future as a means of governing in the absence of sovereignty. It follows that securing hegemony over a vision of the future is important strategic work for IOs, and a source of legitimacy derived from…

Many pedagogies that seek to address the climate and nature emergency (CNE) promise hope and solutions for an idealized future. In this article, we suggest these pedagogies are rooted in the same modern/colonial system that created the CNE and other 'wicked' socio-ecological challenges in the first place, and thus they are not well-suited for…
