The Flourishing Student International Webinar Series S01E01: University of Birmingham

In recent years, many universities have expressed their commitment to a holistic, socially-engaged vision of higher education and are increasingly supporting students to develop character and attributes. These are the qualities necessary for students to navigate the fourth industrial revolution, flourish, and make a positive contribution to society.

In this webinar series, six world-renowned universities recognised for their focus on character education will share their knowledge and expertise. The international webinar series will feature presentations on the role of universities in helping their students to cultivate the character and attributes required for human flourishing.

This episode featured Professor Deborah Longworth, Pro Vice Chancellor for Education, University of Birmingham, and Professor Tom Harrison, Director of the Jubilee Centre and Deputy Pro Vice Chancellor for Education.
