Diversity + Inclusion in Higher Education
Edited by Guy Keulemans + Smiljana Glisovic
The past decade has seen increasing attention placed on the inclusion of diversity in higher education, but evidence of actual progress from the academic and student experience seems less apparent than claims of intent made by university management.
In this edition of Creative Matters students and teachers from across a range of creative arts disciplines share examples of how they are working to make room for diverse voices, experiences and world-views. The articles collected show various examples of what diversity and inclusion can look like, from cross-cultural collaboration, to thematic concerns and curriculum design.
The facilitation and promotion of diversity in creative arts higher education is not just a matter of addressing historical inequities and accessibilities, it is to expand our scholarly interests and strengthen the range and benefits that creative arts provide to communities.
