Video recordings of the first (LIS)2ER workshop on “The Distributional Effects of Higher-Education Expansion” are now available!
The workshop took place virtually from Thursday November 12th through Friday November 13th, and aimed to expand and deepen the understanding of the implications of the mass expansion of higher education for inequality. Six presentations of comparative as well as country-specific studies from different fields in the social sciences dealt with the societal, economic and political causes and consequences of higher education expansion. By discussing how it affects educational and labour market outcomes as well as social mobility, the contributions provided insights on the role of education in fighting (or spurring) inequality.
Video recordings of the workshop per session are available here.
