Research and Scholarship
Our research and scholarship aims to encourage further development of the concept and practice of lifewide learning, personal development and education. Our book, 'Learning for a Complex World: a lifewide concept of learning, development and education' provides our first compilation of ideas and research and we are planning to launch an e-book in spring 2012 to act as a focal point for on-going knowledge development.

Lifewide Development Award
Our intention is to develop and introduce a Learning Partnership Scheme to encourage and support people who want to adopt a lifewide approach to their own development. We will invite members of the Community to participate in the development and implementation of the scheme. Please check the Learning Partnerships page for details.
Lifewide Learning Personal Story Competitions
As part of our awareness raising campaign we will offer at least one competition each year inviting higher education students to demonstrate, through an essay or interactive media product, how they engage in lifewide learning.
