DPU BOOK LAUNCH

This book makes the case for a critical turn in development thinking around universities and their contributions in making a more equal post-2015 world. It puts forward a normative approach based on human development and the capability approach, one which can gain a hearing from policy, scholarship, and practitioners dealing with practical issues of understanding policy, democratising research and knowledge, and fostering student learning - all key university functions.

Book presentation: Alejandra Boni (Ingenio, CSIC-Universidad Politécnica Valencia) Comments: Elaine Unterhalter (Institute of Education, UCL) and Caren Levy (Development Planning Unit, UCL)Chair: Alexandre Apsan Frediani (Development Planning Unit, UCL)
