21 May 2024 2:00pm to 4:30pm
In this online event, we will reflect on the legacy of NICEC International Fellow, Professor Ronald Sultana who died on Friday 24th November 2023. We will explore the contribution that he made to career guidance theory, policy and practice in the 20th and early 21st century and examine how his interest in practice around the Mediterranean, across Europe and in the Global South expanded theorisation of career guidance beyond its traditional home in the Global, and often Anglo-American, North.
He consistently argued for the importance of embedding career guidance in local understandings and ways of being, for career guidance as a force for social justice and for the importance of understanding career guidance as something that was inherently political and bound up in political issues and political systems. We will also look forward to consider how his contribution might shape the future of the field.
In advance of the meeting we would ask all participants to reflect on three main questions.
- What aspects of Ronald’s work have you found most useful, powerful or influential?
- How have you put his ideas to work in your own research or practice?
- What unanswered questions remain? Where do we need to take Ronald’s ideas next?
Thank you to NICEC for agreeing to make this online network meeting, free of charge and open to all.
