Terence Karran is Emeritus Professor of Higher Education Policy at the University of Lincoln. In 2017, he undertook a study of academic freedom in the UK for the University and College Union, which was the basis for an ongoing appeal by the UCU to UNESCO that legislation in the UK does not protect academic freedom sufficiently. In 2019, he was commissioned to draft an Expert Report on “Threats to academic freedom and autonomy of universities in Europe”, for the Council of Europe’s Committee on Culture, Science, Education and Media
