Ahead of the 3 June CIVICA conference on "Digitalisation and the Future of Higher Education," Dr Paul Apostolidis (LSE) reflects on higher ed efforts to generate new civic programming with the help of digital tools.

In the video below, we talk to him about the opportunities created by digital tools to bridge academia with local, regional or international actors. As a leader of civically engaged research activities for students at the LSE, Apostolidis shares his experiences using digital media to connect students to community groups for deeper, more practical learning.
