GUNi Higher Education in the World Reports
Higher Education in the World (HEIW) is a collective work published as part of the GUNi Series on the Social Commitment of Universities. It is the result of a global and regional analysis of higher education in the world. With a specific subject chosen for each edition, the Report reflects on the key issues and challenges facing higher education and its institutions in the 21st century. More than 600 internationally renewed authors from 100 countries have contributed in the GUNi Reports. 19.000 copies have been distributed in 130 countries.
The Report is essential reading for university leaders, academics, administrators and policy-makers concerned with all the issues relating to the role of higher education.
Until now GUNi has published eight issues plus a synthesis (2009) requested by UNESCO for the World Conference on Higher Education (Paris, 2009). The series include the following titles:
