The Research Centre on Higher Education, Development and Capabilities recently hosted two international visitors, Prof. Marie Brennan and Dr Lew Zipin from Victoria University in Australia. They discussed future visits and research collaboration with Prof. Melanie Walker, Professor of Higher Education and Human Development. They presented a well-attended research seminar on ‘Educating for futures in marginalized regions: a sociological framework for rethinking and researching aspirations’.

Prof. Brennan and Dr Zipin have been involved in researching education for social justice in teacher education and higher education in Australia for many years.
