This edited book provides international insights and recommendations around topics of gender and diversity in higher education linking to larger societal goals of improving equality.Within each of the four sections – Student recruitment and retention, Student experience, Faculty and staff experiences and culture, and Higher education cultures of teaching and research – topics unpack and speak to gender and diversity, equity, inclusion and access, social justice, and leadership and sustainability in higher education institutions (HEIs). Incorporating innovative processes and methods, the researchers address how the experiences of groups who have been subordinated and marginalized can be heard, proposing a re-imagination of empowerment and leadership within higher education and best practices for the benefit of ongoing higher education development.This book is ideal reading for higher education leaders, students on higher education courses, leadership courses, gender in education, as well as researchers, practitioners, for topics of gender and diversity, equity, inclusion and access, social justice, leadership and sustainability in HEIs.

Thisinterdisciplinary edited collection will challenge the idea of the staticfamily that can be ''broken'', and instead think of family as always ''on themove'', both conceptually and in practice. This dual approach to family is the uniquecontribution of the book, whichoffers new perspectives on the sociology and geography of the family, drawntogether by the shared lens of family mobilities. As such it brings togetherinsights from the diverse work of interdisciplinary academics working alone andcollaboratively on different aspects of family lives and relationships.The central argument of the book isthat the concept of family is always in motion: a disruption in one aspect offamily relations, for example, the ending of the intimate relationship betweenparents, is part of the ongoing project of family. In addition, families aremade through mobility and immobility in relation to people, communications,objects and ideas. Contributions from a range of academics across disciplines considerchanges in family practices and the ways in which they are produced throughmotion. This bookseeks to understand families as always in motion; changing, adapting andre-routed. Integral to this discussion is the spatiality and temporality of family,that families are produced in different times and spaces. Families are alsomade through interactions with material things, including non-human livingthings and through the emotional ties and responses that determine their formand practices.
