Call for papers 2026
Higher education institutions have a symbiotic relationship with the societies they serve, be they local or global. In recent years, this relationship has encountered challenges on both sides (Berman & Paradeise, 2016). Major global concerns, armed conflicts, disinformation campaigns, all compound to erode the notion of truth and the precedence of facts and increasingly question the worth in and of higher education. The allure of simple answers to complex questions serves to undermine trust in and legitimacy of academia at large.
