Request for information for Widening Participation Review

Following the research and subsequent report into widening participation in Higher Education Art and Design carried out by Dr Caroline Hudson on behalf of CHEAD, (Council for Higher Education in Art & Design),  ACE ( Arts Council England) and ourselves (ADM-HEA), and the follow on seminar 'Transforming research findings' in  2007 run by ADM-HEA, a further publication was commissioned by the above agencies.
 
The review is being undertaken by Dr Dipti Bhagat and Dr Peter O'Neill from London Metropolitan University. The primary aim is an anthology of all research and other relevant work that might effectively be used to inform the development of practice, policy and research on widening participation in the broad subject areas of Art Design and Media across the four nations.

For the purpose of this volume WP is understood as a socio-economic issue and should allow for diversity of research and authors.

If you are able to  recommend additional texts and or research you think relevant please contact  Dr Dipti Bhagat and Dr Peter O’Neill at:
