Leading Universities in an Age of Uncertainty

Tuesday, 6 October 2020 | 2:30pm – 4:00pm CEST (Paris time) / 5:30 am – 7:00 am (Pacific)

In these turbulent times, university leaders around the world have to make decisions based on rapidly changing variables that make it difficult to make meaningful predictions. This webinar will reflect and exchange on principles of leadership that have helped mitigate the present challenges and shape the future. The speakers will speak about the financial, systemic and educational ramifications of the pandemic and share their experiences and decision-making process during these times. We expect that this exchange will be of value to university leaders everywhere and inform their own decision-making in the face of the current crisis and beyond.

 Panelists:

• Mamokgethi Phakeng, Vice-Chancellor, University of Cape Town
• Andrew Deeks, President, University College Dublin
• Sir Hilary Beckles, Vice Chancellor, University of the West Indies
