Susanne Gottuck from Bielefeld University in Germany visited the UFS on 4 October 2012 to welcome the university to the prestigious EduWel Initial Training Network. Generously funded by the EU Commission for four years (2010-2014), the programme focuses on the development of 15 early-stage researchers, supported by senior researchers in nine countries. The early-stage researchers work on the common theme of 'education as welfare'. Following the arrival of Professor Melanie Walker at the UFS, we are now an associate partner of this innovative research capacity-building project. Slides from the presentation about EDUWEL can be obtained from Lucretia Smith (smithl3@ufs.ac.za). While at the university, Susanne also presented a seminar on her research on a Pedagogy of Migration and the concept of 'critical culturalization'.
