For us, sustainability in continuing education means reflecting on our developmental work and sharing this, along with our experiences and results, in the form of publications for professionals in the field. Selected publications: 

Universities and Engagement. International perspectives on higher education and lifelong learning

The book examines what HEI can contribute to society through LLL. Timely and insightful, the book, edited by John Field, Bernhard Schmidt-Hertha and Andrea Waxenegger, Universities of Stirling, Tübingen and Graz, provides a theoretical background, draws on recent research and practice examples, and demonstrates a variety of conceptual approaches.
