What is higher education?  \nEducation has become a core institution of our society and one of the main pillars of modern civilization. It plays a central role in social and economic development, democratic empowerment and the advancement of the general well-being of societies.  \nHigher education is and has always been a human institution for advancing and passing on cultural and intellectual heritage and is a human right guaranteed in the Universal Declaration on Human Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. It is a public good, public responsibility, and therefore should be publicly steered and supported and not become a subject to economic speculation and prey to the ideologies of privatisation and the shrinking of the state.  \nHigher education is a general interest of all people, as it contributes to the common good by increasing the general level of education in society. Taking into account the diversity of the population and different needs of the individuals, higher education must be able to serve different needs and targets at the same time. It is of utmost importance that the multifunctional idea of higher education is implemented, strengthened and focused on by those responsible for policymaking.  \nHigher Education should not be directed towards short-term goals of the labour market, but should create a chance for acquiring competence and understanding, as well as democratic values and skills, and language competences that are needed in the globalised world and the key for sustainable development of a society where everyone can live together peacefully. Solidarity, responsibility, diversity and cooperation should be the main concerns in the development of higher education institutions, shaping the multicultural future we will be living in. This can be seen as part of the long-term transformation of higher education away from a tool for the elite towards a tool for the whole of society and all individuals.  \n2. Who is higher education for?  \nHigher education is an inalienable and fundamental human right. As such it must be open for all parts of the society, independent from background, age or any other factor. Access must be free, not only economically free but also free in terms of without barriers. Access should not be considered solely as admission to higher education, but more holistic as the means,  \nstructures and mechanisms by which students are supported during their studies. It also includes the possibility to acquire the necessary tools to succeed when leaving higher education.  \nEducational systems must be designed in such a way that the choices made during primary and secondary education do not hinder access to higher education. Educational systems’ builtin mechanisms maintaining socioeconomic divides must be identified and tackled accordingly. Ways of enabling wider access to higher education to marginalised groups must be implemented, in order to create an inclusive environment mirroring society and all its diversity.  \n3. Interaction within the community  \nHigher education is neither a separate entity nor does it have its own sphere of reality separate from the rest of society. It is an important part of society, although its role is too often ignored or misunderstood. Higher education plays a crucial role for the development of the society as a whole and for the growth of the local communities that each Institution belongs to.  \nHigher education provides society with a fundamental basis, which allows for constant social development and improvement in living standards of the whole community.  \nHigher education has multiple purposes; it ensures the existence and the well-being of democratic principles, such as critical thinking, active participation, active citizenship, freedom of speech and freedom of thought. In this sense, Higher Education works not only for those who are enrolled i","cbCaijhCCrNTaOFu","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijhCCrNTaOFu","pdf",813023,"English","# What is higher education?\n## Who is higher education for?\n## Interaction within the community\n## What is the outcome?","[{\"question\":\"What is the role of higher education in society?\",\"answer\":\"Higher education supports constant social development, strengthens democratic principles like critical thinking and active citizenship, and contributes to local community growth through knowledge creation and research.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is higher education for, according to the text?\",\"answer\":\"Higher education is an inalienable human right and must be open to all parts of society, independent of background, age, or other factors, with free and barrier-free access and holistic student support.\"},{\"question\":\"What outcomes should higher education aim to achieve?\",\"answer\":\"Higher education should enable diverse outcomes accessible over a lifetime, with a key focus on developing the capacity to think critically and on student-centred teaching and learning.\"}]","2018 Introduction to ESU’s Policies in Higher Education - amended | PDF",1792047408,25]
