Sam and I have been thinking through how to name the NCSEHE and its research agenda, in a sucinct way - the kind of thing we can even put on our letterhead. This is what we have so far:

"Founded in 2008, The National Centre for Student Equity in Higher Education is a research centre funded by the Australian Government Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations and hosted by the University of South Australia. The Centre's research is informed by three themes: aspiration, mobility, and place."

Administered by the University of Southern California’s Center for Urban Education, the overarching mission of the Institutes on Equity and Critical Policy Analysis is to develop a community of equity minded scholars and policy analysts with a commitment to identifying, calling attention to, and changing policies and educational practices that produce and sustain racial-ethnic inequities in postsecondary outcomes.

I've been recently appointed by national Ministerial agency Education.au to explore the equity implications and opportunities related to e-learning and digital education.

I haven’t been able to find a great deal of research into this nexus in Australia despite the recent large investments in both policy areas, and uncovering many local gems of work in this field across Australia.
