International conference on Reconnecting, Reflecting, and Rethinking Education Policy
Description:
In the past decade, the Erasmus+ Education Policies for Global Development (GLOBED) programme has grown into a global community of researchers, professionals and political leaders committed to understanding and transforming education systems from the perspective of social justice and global development. To celebrate its tenth anniversary, GLOBED organises a two-day international conference at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. The conference will include the participation of researchers, professionals, political leaders, alumni, and collaborating entities from all over the world to reflect on the future of educational policies and global development. Its goal is to foster dialogue at the intersection of research, public policy and professional practice.
Over the course of two days, the debates will focus on topics such as the evolution of education policy and global development over the past decade and potential future directions; the major challenges facing education systems amidst the convergence of multiple crises in diverse regional contexts; the evolving role of data, expert knowledge, and international organisations in education governance; the role of higher education internationalisation and student mobility in the current landscape; and new forms of collaboration among academia, civil society, governments, and international organisations.

From Ceuta to Hormuz: Geopolitics of the Mediterranean and the Middle East - UAB Geography Alumni Network
Description:
We invite you to join us on 22 October for the session From Ceuta to Hormuz: Geopolitics of the Mediterranean and the Middle East, organised by the UAB Geography Alumni Network.
The event will take place online at 6:30 pm.
The session will be delivered by Eduard Soler, Associate Professor of International Relations at UAB and Senior Associate Researcher at IBEI.
The talk starts from a simple idea: the same geographical area can be referred to by many different names (the Mediterranean, the Arab World, MENA, or Western Asia), and each label reflects a different way of understanding who holds power and why. Building on this premise, the speaker will argue that the region remains one of the world's main hotspots of conflict, despite the dominant narrative that places the centre of global strategic competition in the Pacific.
To illustrate this, the session will focus on two particularly sensitive locations in 2026: the Strait of Gibraltar and the Strait of Hormuz.
In both cases, we will examine what is changing, why these areas are so strategically volatile and which actors, state and non-state, regional and extra-regional, are pursuing power strategies there.
The session will be moderated by Joan Carles Llurdés, Vice-Dean for Inclusion, Economy and Facilities, Secretary of the Faculty and Coordinator of the Geography Alumni Network.
