  • AIEA Provost Perspectives: the Liberal Arts and Internationalization
    AIEA PROVOST PERSPECTIVES JUNE 2015 The Liberal Arts and Internationalization: Leveraging Student Mobility, Partnerships, and Faculty Hires Mette Hjort • Lingnan University Associate Vice President (Academic Quality Assurance & Internationalization) and Chair Professor of Visual Studies PROVOST PERSPECTIVES Name: Mette Hjort Title: Associate Vice President (Academic Quality Assurance & Internationalization); Chair Professor of Visual Studies Time served as Provost: Two years (as of June 2015) With historical roots extending back to the 1880s in Guangzhou on the Chinese Mainland, Lingnan University is one of eight government-funded universities in Hong Kong and the only liberal arts institution in the sector. Located in Tuen Mun, in the western New Territories, Lingnan University draws on both Chinese and Western traditions in its provision of liberal arts education. Lingnan is a fully residential, English medium-of-instruction university with a strong commitment to Service Learning and Internationalization. The University enrolls about 2,500 undergraduates and about 500 research and taught postgraduate students and is deeply committed to the provision of quality education to students from lower income backgrounds. Mette Hjort joined Lingnan in 2005 when the University, building on its acknowledged strengths in analytic aesthetics, secured government support for the creation of a new interdisciplinary Visual Studies program oriented toward capacity building in the visual arts. The larger context for the University’s initiative was the government’s ambitious plans for a West Kowloon cultural district, a project designed to make art and culture central to Hong Kong’s further development in the Post-Handover era. A Dane who grew up in Kenya and was educated in the UK, Holland, Switzerland, Canada, and France, Mette’s training encompasses comparative literature, philosophy, media studies, and art history.

    N°125 May 2014 543 documentaries, news films and web documentaries from 39 countries have been registered for the 18th PriMed, which will take place in Marseille from December 8th to 13th. A record number -- last year there were 440 films in competition. The Mediterranean is changing, evolving – the region interests more and more documentary film-makers. Through PriMed the CMCA wants to give them a voice – and a shop-window. We would like to thank all those who have shown their support by sending their films. News about Mediterranean broadcasting is as fascinating as ever -- in these pages you will see how true that is: Nerit, the new Greek television company began transmitting on May 4th; in Romania and Serbia there are new channels; in Morocco a charter has been agreed by 2M to give women their rightful place. Things are moving and we reflect that! Happy reading The editorial team Méditerranée Audiovisuelle-La Lettre. Dépôt Légal 29 janvier 2014. ISSN : 1634-4081.

Through a range of policies and actual programs, the Kingdom seeks sustainable human development and decentralization, achieved through participatory democratic methods. Civil organizations are capable of strengthening participatory democracy and creating federations for sustainable development owing to the existence of Moroccan frameworks that encourage this process. To achieve scale, the model of the High Atlas Foundation (HAF) - a profit / non-profit hybrid - is to invest strategically in training, seeds and infrastructure, thus enabling local cooperatives engaged in organic agriculture to generate further revenue from this and carbon offsets to finance their own human development projects.
