We are pleased to alert CR&DALL subscribers to the 2nd edition of the Routledge Handbook of the Sociology of Higher Education. It is particular resonant for the centre since my co-author of the first edition was the late Andy Furlong, a member of the CR&DALL. It contains a chapter on Access to Higher Education by CR&DALL Director, Mike Osborne.

Over the last eighteen months PIMA (PASCAL International Members Association), in collaboration with the Canadian Association for Studies in Adult Education (CASAE), Adult Learning Australia (ALA) and Standing Conference on University Teaching and Research in Education of Adults (SCUTREA), has led a series of Climate Justice and Adult Learning and Education (ALE) webinars and has produced a special edition of the its PIMA Bulletin 39 (Nov 21) which captures climate justice themes and gives examples.  With recurrent intensified climate events, yet no apparent sense of urgency in many regions, we wish to deepen the dialogue and educational actions.
