New plans for the IAU Global Meeting of Associations in May 2015

IAU and the African hosts of the 6th edition of the IAU Global Meeting of Associations (GMA), scheduled for May in West Africa, have agreed to postpone the GMA in Africa until 2017.
Instead, IAU welcomes new partners for this GMA: the Inter America Organization of Higher Education (IOHE-OUI) and the host institution, Université de Montréal, both Members of the Association who have agreed to collaborate with IAU to organize this GMA in Montreal.
The dates for the 6th GMA remain 7 and 8 May 2015, however, the new location has inspired the partners to focus on a new theme: Social innovation: challenges and perspectives for higher education, which will call on the various national, regional and international university associations, networks and groups to explore how universities are involved in social innovations, how they link up to governments, civil society and industry to develop new solutions to social problems.
