This authoritative volume is a truly international contribution to
the worldwide debate on how best to widen access to lifelong
learning.
The first section of the book comprises research studies from
around the world, reflecting the diversity of contexts in which
widening access is researched and considers issues central to the
access debate, including different understandings of the concept of
access, organisational and structural change, curriculum
development, entry policies, performance and retention and labour
market outcomes.
The second section illustrates diverse and innovative
methodological approaches that have been employed by researchers in
the field, and considers the range of approaches available.
Given the growing concern around the world on the need to combat
social exclusion and to improve economic circumstances through
access to lifelong learning, this book acts as a unique reference
point informing the ongoing debate, exploring the relationships
between research, policy and practice.
