In this paper, I explore the potential of critical pedagogy as an experiential approach within the neoliberal university to support inclusivity. I argue that the university is neoliberal in its promotion of individual and self-interested self-gain at the expense of a more democratic and collective understanding of success. Critical pedagogy is founded on principles of democratic ways of working for social justice, and I argue that operationalised through active experiential learning, it can be used to support students to develop the skills to be democratic and inclusive both in the classroom and beyond.
