- learning organisations and learning cities
- learning by design and learning by choice
- learning that is pushed-in to timetable, and learning that is pulled-in as needed
- learning for employability and learning for social progress
- … and so on.
The interest in Work encompasses interests in:
- leadership, management and governance
- work structures that work
- employment and young people
- wages and inequalities
- work-support programmes
- being occupied (paid or otherwise)
- ‘really useful’ work
- the value of work
- wellbeing and occupation of self
- …. and so on.
