With higher education’s funding in a mess, Felicity and I continue giving ‘side of the desk’ attention to hanfod.NL (i.e., for free) but now without the supporting infrastructure of an academic post. Nevertheless, we’re still committed to the field, and the ground we broke up for ourselves:

• Felicity’s phenomenological take on Higher Order Thinking Skills was trailed recently over on her blog. Please do take a look https://emergentthinkers.com/2025/08/29/announcing-my-new-book-an-ontological-and-phenomenological-inquiry-into-thinking-facilitation/
• Mike’s due to give an ‘Introduction to Phenomenology’ online session 13th November for Dr Maria Cutajar’s Masters in Open and Networked Higher Education (MONHE). Follow this link for the blurb: https://www.um.edu.mt/newspoint/upcomingevents/2025/webinar-introductiontophenomenologywithdrmikejohson.html
• We’ve got a couple of papers in for next May’s NLC, both quite novel, and fun even! I heard a rumor that at least one new phenomenological voice could be joining us in Belgium… 🤫
