IAU 70 years Book Launch 2 - The Promise of Higher Education and its Future

What does the future hold for universities, staff and students?

What will students need to become active members of society and solve political, social, and cultural challenges? How will universities foster critical thinking, future creativity, and personal development? What will universities look like? In short, how will higher education unlock further potential to serve the common good and empower humanity?

Learn how universities will actively shape a sustainable future and how they will have to adapt as institutions. A discussion and Q&A will follow the presentations.
