Abstract: This pamphlet contains the transcripts of talks made on November 16th 2019, at the only event held in Scotland marking the 100th anniversary of the 1919 Report on Adult Education. The 1919 report shaped the development of formalised adult education in Britain and continues to influence the current adult learning landscape. We met just a few days before the publication of the 2019 Centenary Report on Adult Education, with its call to reinvigorate our national infrastructure for adult learning necessary for securing adult learning so essential to civic and political life. Sponsored by the Lipman Miliband Trust, the event was held at the offices of the Scottish Trade Union Congress (STUC) on Woodlands Road in Glasgow. The purpose was to look back to the social and economic crises that shaped Scotland in 1919, immediately after the Great War, considering the role of radical adult education within social movement responses. This was no nostalgia trip. The intention was to be reminded of how adult education was born out of crisis and was integral to collective refusals to accept social injustice and inequality. Our assumption was that this reminder might inspire our own responses to current political and social events.2019-11-16T00:00:00ZApex Scotland Annual Lecture 2020: 'Courage of Convictions: Progressive visions and allies in uncertain times'Graham, Hannahhttp://hdl.handle.net/1893/319202021-04-29T03:14:35Z2020-09-01T00:00:00ZTitle: Apex Scotland Annual Lecture 2020: 'Courage of Convictions: Progressive visions and allies in uncertain times'
Author(s): Graham, Hannah
Abstract: The lecture speaks of moral courage and professional and political bravery, and the types of strategies in and beyond Scottish justice that will require them. It considers how emerging from the exceptional circumstances and adversity of the COVID-19 crisis offers opportunities for doing justice differently. This is not about decorating the criminal justice system in silver linings. Being a high punishment society is not inevitable. A range of strategies are discussed, such as decarceration, diversion, decriminalisation, activism, sentencing and prosecutorial reform, and matters of health, welfare and social justice. In strategising how Scottish justice can recover and move on from the impacts of COVID, I warn of the need to avoid what I call ‘band-aids that wound’, or bandages that wound. Things designed to help in one way may, paradoxically, harm or hinder in others. The lecture also emphasises how the strength of our relationships rise to the fore in times of crisis and it is relationships among diverse allies that will be critical to making real progress in the days ahead.2020-09-01T00:00:00ZReview of the Aberdeen Problem-Solving ApproachMurray, LorraineGraham, HannahEunson, JaneMcIvor, GillMalloch, Margarethttp://hdl.handle.net/1893/299132021-04-28T15:38:43Z2018-09-05T00:00:00ZTitle: Review of the Aberdeen Problem-Solving Approach
