The ASEAN Conference on Accounting Education 2015 (ACAE 2015) envisions to be the platform for academic discussions, sharing and exchanging of views on current issues and methods of solving issues in accounting education around the world focusing on global and glocal challenges faced by accounting education in this century.
It is open to local and international academia, researchers, policy makers, accounting professional bodies and ‘stakeholders’ who have an interest in the field of accounting education. From the presentations and exchange of views with international professional groups on current issues, we can gain knowledge which, subsequently, could be useful for teaching and learning. The Conference will also help build a closer network between industry and universities, bridging the gap between theory and practice.
The 19th ASEF Summer University (ASEFSU) will take place on 9-21 August 2015 in Pune, India. It will address the multifaceted and complex challenges stemming from rapid urbanisation, which is increasingly visible across both Asia and Europe. Cities are now home to more than 50% of the world’s population and face a plethora of issues such as social inequity, poor governance, underemployment, congestion and pollution. Heritage cities face an additional particular predicament: that of building synergies between economic development and heritage conservation to ensure sustainable urbanisation.
ASEFSU offers a solution-centred platform for exchange of ideas and practices while engaging in intercultural collaboration addressing urbanisation and protection of cultural heritage. In particular the project aims to:
- Facilitate dialogue and on-site projects that connect the participants and the local community
- Train the participants to enhance their creative thinking and hands-on skills by offering a programme which integrates social, economic, environmental, technological and artistic elements
- Create models and software prototypes for the local community which enhance heritage preservation in the process of urbanisation (e.g. mobile applications, websites, business plans, open source codes, etc.)
- Produce an e-publication and multimedia online-databank which include best practises, recommendations and the deliverables from the project
The topic of the future of cities is high on the cultural agenda of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM), as evidenced by the focus of recent ASEM Culture Ministers’ Meetings. AU19 addresses this ASEM priority and will also build on ASEF’s previous work on urban heritage management including ASEF Experts’ Meetings and Public Forums on:

ABOUT THE AWARD
The world needs more engineers, and that means engineers who represent the full spectrum of individuals within our global community.
Airbus and the Global Engineering Deans Council (GEDC) created the GEDC Airbus Diversity Award in 2013 to recognise people whose efforts are making engineering schools more diverse and inclusive. Our aim is to shine a light on good practise around the world and inspire others to take up this challenge.
The 3rd Advanced Summer School on Humanitarian Supply Chain Management and Logistics, to be held in Yogyakarta from 6th to 10th of July 2015, is the manifestation of the ever-closer relationship and cooperation between NOHA AISBL and Universitas Gadjah Mada. Already for a period of eight years NOHA AISBL has worked closely together with Universitas Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta, Republic of Indonesia. Thanks to the Directorate General Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection and the Directorate General Education and Culture (Erasmus Mundus), both European Commission, as well as the European NOHA Universities this cooperation blossoms.
The deepening relationship has resulted in dozens of staff and student exchanges, in thesis research being accompanied by UGM professors in situ and in collaboration towards joint doctorate research. By co-jointly organizing a high profile summer school NOHA and UGM set the next step to an activities-based relationship – as dictated by NOHA’s global strategy – aimed for increased academic humanitarian research and aimed at contemporary relevance for humanitarian practice. The University of Groningen have been mandated by the NOHA Board of Directors to organize this school together with UGM, its scholars from various faculties, the Programme on Humanitarian Action (POHA) and its International Office. The target audience constitutes a mix of students, academics, officials and practitioners; familiar as well as unfamiliar with the subject, both from Indonesia itself, the larger Asia region and from international organisations.
