    18th Annual Conference of the Gesellschaft für Hochschulforschung (GfHf)

    Interaction between Higher Education Research and Higher Education Development: Empiricism, Transfer and Impact - CALL FOR PAPERS

    Organiser: CHE Centrum für Hochschulentwicklung und Hochschule Osnabrück

    Abstracts in German or English on the topics listed in the Call for Papers can be submitted at https://gfhf2023.che.de/en/home/ until 31 March 2023. As usual, there will also be an Open Track which will include con­tri­bu­ti­ons with content outside the con­fe­rence theme. The con­fe­rence programme and a Book of Abstracts will be published in early June 2023.

    This year’s theme focuses on the interplay between higher education research and higher education deve­lo­p­ment. On the one hand, the data obtained by higher education research, its transfer and the effects it generates in higher education practice and policy play a decisive role. On the other hand, it is a question of illu­mi­na­ting the exchange rela­ti­on­ships between the two fields.

    Learning Across Continents: Conversations in a divided world

    VETNET

    Topics:

    • How do we understand the role of VET in preparing young people for work when labour markets and workplaces are in flux nationally and internationally?
    • Is this changing the nature of VET and VET curricula? Is it raising new questions on work, labour markets and education? What is core to VET that is stable across different contexts?
    • Are systems looking more similar or more different from each other?
    • What are the main factors—such as workplace organisation, changing labour markets, changing enrolment in schools and universities, and the nature of economies that are influencing different aspects of VET provision—such as curriculum, governance, partnerships, enrollment patterns—in different countries?
    • How do we connect better as researchers, and use VET research to build connection?

    Embracing Diversity in Vocational Education and Training (VET)

    Umeå University

    Vocational Education and Training (VET) in the Nordic countries is shaped by strong welfare traditions, close relationships between education and working life, and longstanding ambitions of equality, inclusion and high‑quality education for all. Nevertheless, Nordic VET systems display substantial variation and complexity, influenced by social, demographic, pedagogical and structural differences across countries, regions, institutions and vocational fields. The 2027 NORDYRK conference Embracing Diversity in VET invites researchers, practitioners and policymakers to explore how such diversity shapes the conditions, opportunities and challenges of VET.   The Call for abstracts opens on November 11, 2026 and closes on January 31, 2027. Registration is required.
