Objectives
The purpose is to provide Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) regional and national authorities, and policy makers with information and analysis to assist them in formulating and implementing policies to mobilize higher education for social, economic and cultural development.
The reviews aim
- To extend the knowledge base of higher education in economic, social and cultural development at regional level
- To develop and reinforce partnerships between HEIs and business and industry and other social partners
- To assist HEIs to articulate their mission, develop their management, evaluate their contribution and contribute to their viability
- To develop reliable indicators and system-level and individual incentives for regional engagement
Key questions
- What policies, practices and mechanisms promote mobilization of higher education for regional and city development?
- How to make reforms happen?
- Which brings greater benefits to cities and regions: a high performing regionally focused higher education system or a single world class university?
Outputs of the review
The reviews will produce a range of outputs that will be disseminated via print and electronic means, workshops and seminars:
- Regional self-evaluation reports prepared by the regions and their HEIs
- Peer review reports of all regions prepared by international experts
- Commissioned papers International comparative analysis on specific issues
