General Call for Proposals for the First of the World Congress Series in Montreal 2013

November 20^th 2012

The first World Congress on access to post-secondary education will be held at Mount Royal Centre, Montreal, Canada, between October 7-10 2013.

The World Congress Planning Committee invites proposals for activities within the general program of the Congress which will serve these purposes from individuals and organisations in academia, business, government, the community sector, international agencies and elsewhere.

All proposed activities must be interactive and must lead to outcomes that can be shared with the broader congress, such as an idea to take forward, a proposal for joint action, the development of an interest or working group or a community of practice.

The Committee will give preference to activities which are innovative and/or which focus on some aspect of innovation. Proposers are encouraged to be creative in developing their activities.

The call for proposals will remain open until the end of February 2013, to find out more and download the Proposals Form, please click here.

World Congress on Access to Post-Secondary Education - Scholars Programme

September 18th 2012

Currently enrolled students can now apply for a chance to win a $US1,000 scholarship to undertake a small research project in their local area and travel and accommodation expenses to present their findings at the first Wolrd Congress on Access to Post-secondary Education in Montreal in October 2013.

The intiative is part of the World Congress Planning Committee's aim to support a strong student voice in the World Congress series.

Up to eight students in total will be chosen, each representing a different region of the world. Their work will help to improve our understanding of access issues in these regions.

Each student chosen will be supervised by an appointed mentor. Their research should highlight issues related to access to post-secondary education in their respective region and they will be asked to submit a written report and a short video by the end of September 2013.

Please note the deadline for submitting applications has been extended until November 30^th 2012.
