UNESCO Chair – GACER – January 27 – An Opportunity We Should Not Lose

Dear Friends,
 

Several of you are already deeply involved or know about the forthcoming Barcelona International Conference on Knowledge, Transformation and Higher Education, so please accept our apologies for the duplication!

 

“We are willing to organize everything to make this the most creative and productive world conference ever on community-university engagement”….Cristina Esgrigas and GUNi colleagues

 

As you know, Rajesh and I are working with the remarkable GUNi colleagues on both the May 13-15 Conference and the subsequent World Report on Higher Education. We are doing so in order to further the dream of so many of us to create a space where as many of the major networks in the world and as many of you who are leaders in this movement can be in one place to substantially advance a collective agenda.  The Barcelona event is not a GUNi event!  It is our event. The talented team at GUNi are at our disposal to help our global movement come together and move our actions and collaborations forward.  This is an opportunity that will not come again for a long time.

 

Reports from GUNi team are that the responses to the Call for Good Practices and the registrations are low….so we are asking for your help.

 

We need your help!

 

 

Thank you for your continued leadership throughout the world.  We look forward to being together in Barcelona in May

 

Warmest best wishes

Rajesh, Cristina and Budd
