| GENIE – the Globalisation and Europeanisation
Network in Education—was created as a response to the increasing scope of
Europeanisation and the increasing pace and penetration of globalisation and their various
impacts on national education systems. It aims to provide a means for interested and
concerned academics from across Europe to develop and consolidate a knowledge base for
teaching and research around the theme of globalisation and Europeanisation in education.
In taking Europeanisation and globalisation as ‘topic’, ‘medium’
and ‘outcome’, GENIE offers the opportunity for reflexive mutual support and
learning.
Aims and Objectives
- Strengthen the community of scholars engaged in teaching globalisation and
Europeanisation in undergraduate and graduate programmes
- Develop understandings of the dimensions of globalisation, regionalisation and
Europeanisation including how these ideas are constructed in different debates and in
different national and institutional settings
- Identify and develop knowledge and understandings of key sub-themes that make up the
theme globalisation and Europeanisation in education;
- Systematically develop the knowledge and teaching resource bases around the theme and
subtheme areas, including how it is shaped in and shapes university curriculums, debates,
policies and practices;
- Promote the exchange of knowledge and understandings around, and of ideas and practices
for the teaching of, globalisation and Europeanisation as it is understood in different
national and institutional settings;
- Generate new understandings around globalisation and processes of Europeanisation which
might act as the basis of knowledge transformation;
- Act as a clearing house for members’ (and others’) resources, experiences and
expertise.
- Strengthen the potential for research on globalisation and Europeanisation
- Identify modes of dissemination and initiatives around the overall theme and its
subthemes that can be developed in the future; and thereby, strengthen and enhance the
quality of teaching of globalisation and Europeanisation within higher education
institutions.
