Meanwhile across much of Asia, Africa, the sub-continent, and Latin America, things look different. As the authorial team established in the "The Engaged University" (Watson, 2011), looking from the South to the North, exposes the lack of any such comfort zone. For one thing it can simply be more dangerous in the South; violence can be around and in some cases on the campus itself.

'The Engaged University' by David Watson is an account of how universities around the world are directly engaged in tackling community problems – combating poverty, improving public health, and restoring environmental quality. This book documents the civic engagement programmes of twenty universities worldwide.

It includes a review of how they are seeking to re-engage with this social purpose, and an overview of the challenges facing the "engaged university."
