CAUT will be sending representatives to Education International’s Higher Education and Research Conference in Buenos Aires, Argentina, this September.

The three-day conference aims to address key developments and emerging challenges in the international education sector.

Topics covered in sessions will include equity and diversity, financing and defending education during a period of economic austerity, the challenges of promoting research and researchers as acting in the public interest, and issues around rankings, assessments and account­abi­lity tools. One session will be dedicated to Latin American issues and challenges as well as their larger global implications.
