Wednesday 27th July 5:00 – 6:00 in person
Britain is blessed to have a world-leading higher education sector. Our universities are a great source of strength for the country and their role – in an increasingly knowledge-based economy – is becoming more and more central to our future prosperity. Universities are also becoming increasingly central to our future social prospects.
Education and employability are the keys that can unlock both individual citizens’ and countries’ progress. Who get into university and how they get on once they have left will have a critical role in determining whether Britain’s sluggish rates of social mobility can be improved.
When properly realised, education can be a global asset to fight not only poverty, inequality, insecurity but also with global disease and epidemics. The more educated a Nationis, the stronger security they’ll have.
Keynote Speaker: Paul Lindley OBE, Chancellor the University of Reading
