Higher education, communities and cultural regeneration  will be the topic of our next workshop taking place in Brighton (10th April). The workshop will see the contribution of two keynote speakers: Dr Paul Benneworth (from the University of Twente in the Netherlands) & Prof. Kim Yasuda (from Art   Department at University of California, Santa Barbara and Executive  Vice Chair of Imagining America's National Advisory Board)

Dr Paul Benneworth is a senior researcher at the Center for
Higher Education  Policy Studies (CHEPS) at the University of Twente, the  Netherlands.  His research concerns the relationships between higher  education and society,  and in understanding the ways in which higher education  institutions (HEIs) as  complex institutional forms interact with societal  sub-systems and communities.  His research in this area has been funded by  a range of governments and  research councils, including the OECD, the ESRC, RCUK, the European Commission,  and the Norwegian Research Council.  From  2010-2012 he led the Humanities in  the European Research Area (HERA) ERA-NET funded project “Measuring the public  value of arts and humanities research”  (HERAVALUE) which focused on  understanding the ways in which arts and humanities  research influenced  societal development processes (http://www.heranet.info/heravalue/index).   He is also the editor of the volume Universities’engagement  with excluded communities (Springer, 2013).

Prof. Kim Yasuda is a visual artist and professor of spatial studies in the Art Department at University of California, Santa Barbara. She has served as 
department chair and is currently co-director of the multi-campus research unit, the U.C. Institute for Research in the Arts (UCIRA). The UCIRA serves as a
major  platform for presenting, discussing and advocating for the arts-centered research across the 10-campus U.C. system. Its expanded mission supports active  and embedded scholarship models that work transitively through multi-agency partnerships and geographic settings outside the conventional  teaching, studio,  gallery, museum or performance contexts.
In the past 5 years, Yasuda has activated university  teaching with her public arts research and creative  administration, developing  initiatives that forge partnerships between academic  environs and the  local/regional communities in which they are situated. She is
co-principal investigator of Imagining America’s Community Knowledge Collaboratory, and serves on the National Advisory Board’s Strategic Planning Committee.
