Nassau, THE Bahamas Academic freedom and the pursuit of new knowledge are pivotal aspects of University of The Bahamas’ (UB’s) mission, which for the last two decades has been showcasing the breadth of its research expertise via its Research Edge forum. UB recently commemorated the 20th anniversary of Research Edge in a virtual presentation which paid homage to the legacy platform. Research Edge is the brainchild of Higher Education and Development Policy Specialist the late Dr. Joan Vanderpool and was initiated in 2000 at the then College of The Bahamas (COB). Dr. Vanderpool’s vision for Research Edge was for it to be a forum that would showcase and promote scholarly, Bahamas-based research. Over the years, of the 141 research presentations delivered, the majority has focused on education and social science. Other research studies have centered on the environment, health, technology, tourism, sustainability and business.
