Productive Relationships: Creative and Cultural Industries and Higher Education in Wales

CALL FOR PAPERS

Colleagues are invited to submit 250-500 word proposals for case studies for the Productive Relationships project which aims to articulate and discuss how HEIs across Wales, in particular their art, design and media programmes, engage with cultural and creative industries. The project, supported by the Higher Education Academy Art, Design, Media Subject Centre (ADM-HEA) and HEA Wales, will deliver the first major report on this issue, to be published in Autumn 2009.
 

Case Study Proposals
Case studies should focus on the intersections between factors driving the development of creative and cultural industries and the ADM HE sector in Wales to consider forms of engagement with employers, creative and cultural industry practitioners and other agencies. This will identify potential for enhancement of engagement in key areas such as: curriculum enhancement; knowledge transfer; continuing professional development and work-force development; entrepreneurship, social and community enterprise; Welsh language; ethical and sustainable development; enhancing diversity and inclusion.
 
How to Submit a Proposal
Please submit a 250-500 word proposal for a case study either in the body of an email, or as a Word document, to Jo Walter by Monday 16th March 2009
