This book explores the various responses of higher education to the pandemic across Europe and North America, with contributions also from Africa, Asia and South America.

The book describes the various ways in which higher education is facing the Covid-19 pandemic. It is designed to help universities, specifically their staff and students as well as their partners, contribute to a more sustainable and democratic future.
