The Centre for Global Media and Democracy
Public lecture series: Doing Democracy Differently
The privatisation and marketization of Higher Education has turned the University into a factory. Soaring student debt, increasing numbers of staff on precarious contracts and out-sourced support services on dismal conditions of contract are destroying universities. How do we reclaim higher education for the public good?
