The 2012 SRHE Annual Conference focused on a key question currently being asked about higher education across the globe: What is Higher Education for?

This question has become rich territory for politicians, economists, financiers and business enterprises, social commentators, journalists and broadcasters. The voice of higher education has at times stifled by the imperative to react to the demands of economic concerns and, in such a diverse and richly varied environment, this “voice” can never be a single one. The need to define shared goals and articulate a vision which responds to the challenges of economic, social and political ambitions, and embraces intellectual and moral ones, has never been greater.
