FreshEd #184 – Higher Education For And Beyond The SDGs (Tristan McCowan)

from FreshEd · host FreshEd with Will Brehm

What role does higher education play in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals? My guest today is Tristan McCowan, author of the new book entitled Higher Education for and beyond the Sustainable Development Goals, which was published earlier this year. Tristan interrogates the idea of a so-called developmental university working towards the SGDs, identifying both positive and negative outcomes. Tristan McCowan is a Professor of International Education at the Institute of Education, University College London. I spoke with Tristan in his office in London, which just so happens to be around the corner from mine. This is actually the first episode that I’ve recorded at my new intuitional home at the Institute of Education. There’s a lot more to say about the future of FreshEd now that I live in London, but I’m going to wait until next year to tell you all about it. For now, enjoy our latest episode and stay tuned for our end of year show with Susan Robertson and Roger Dale, which will air next week. -- www.freshedpodcast.com/McCowan/ Twitter: @FreshEdpodcast Facebook: FreshEd Email: [email protected]
