Inequalities in Higher Education and Arts

We are now in the middle of a unique international PhD course at Bergen Summer Research School called Global Inequalities in Higher Education and the Arts. Below is my introductory video for the course, which is co-taught with geographer Erlend Eidsvik.

We have outstanding guest lecturers appearing in this course, including Emily Achieng’ Akuno, Tara Pandeya, Alexis Kallio, Lesley Le Grange, Suriamurthee Maistry, and Nasim Niknafs.


PhD Candidates have joined the course from universities in many different countries—including South Africa, Nigeria, Cameroon, Australia, India, Canada, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, and UK—including students who originally come from such places as China, Indonesia, Russia, Georgia, and Spain. 


Below is a link for Emily Akuno's keynote speech:

I look forward to seeing the long-term outcomes of this course, and the PhD summer school as a whole, including the likelihood of some joint publications.
