Distance Education and Learning Futures Alliance - DELFA

The Distance Education and Learning Futures Alliance (DELFA) aims to build capacity and a network of leaders who are at the forefront of new innovations in teaching and learning in tertiary education. DELFA supports new models and emerging approaches to tertiary education for today's digitally wired, globally connected and rapidly changing higher education landscape. It brings together a unique mix of leading scholars and educators to create a powerful community of practice which can help seed and evaluate the effectiveness of new innovations in distance education and learning futures.

In this sense DELFA aims to be recognised as a driving force and world leader in redefining and transforming the nature of teaching and learning for today's modern digital-era university. The essence of DELFA's mission is encapsulated in the words of John F. Kennedy:

“Some people see the world now and others

see the world how it could be

and ask why not”
