CAUT Bulletin: CAUT Motion on Contract Academic Staff Wins Backing at EI World Congress
Teachers and educators from around the world have joined together to call for fairer treatment for contract academic staff.
Delegates to the Fifth World Congress of Education International — the global federation representing more than 30 million teachers and education workers in more than 160 countries — overwhelmingly supported a CAUT resolution on the rights and academic freedom of fixed-term higher education teaching personnel, meaning academic staff who are employed on a casual, part-time and/or limited-term basis.
