Education Impact Study: The Global Recession and the Capacity of Colleges and Universities to Serve Vulnerable Populations in Asia

This paper reviews the capacity of colleges and universities to serve poor and vulnerable populations during past and present economic shocks. The main argument is that the environment of the global recessionâ€”an Asia far more economically integrated than during past economic shocks, with more unified aspirations to be globally competitive and socially responsibleâ€”need not delay reforms in higher education. [ADBI WP 208].
