Join USQ for our World Access to Higher Education Day event - Full program available!
28 November 2018 9.30am AEST

Join us in Toowoomba or connect in online!

World Access to Higher Education Day highlights the disparities in access to education – particularly higher education – worldwide. 

This inaugural event brings together universities, vocational and further education providers, communities, industry, and government to focus on the role these institutions play in addressing, whilst also contributing to, the issue of access.

Our full program of events will engage participants with the key questions from higher education, industry, and broader society in sessions that tackle the challenging, controversial, and confronting issues surrounding equitable access to education.

Our program includes:
· Keynote presentation by Prudence Melom exploring how equity in education for all creates great leaders of tomorrow.
· Featured presentations exploring the use of data to enhance success for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, the role of regional universities in widening access to education, and making education available to incarcerated students.
· Panel discussion on the question: does everyone belong at university?

Follow, or contribute to, the conversation via Twitter using the #WAHED2018 hashtag. To find out more, visit the USQ WAHED website: https://wahed.usq.edu.au
