Going Global is an open forum for global leaders of international education to discuss current issues. Since 2004, it has grown from a biennial event in the UK to an annual event alternating between the UK and major international cities. 

This year’s overarching theme is ‘Building nations through connecting cultures’. The diverse range of conference sessions will consider the role of universities and the wider higher education sector in the process of nation-building. The sessions will consider the theme through three lenses:

 

1.Education policy: local priorities, national systems and global drivers

2.Economic development: skills, enterprise, research and innovation

3.Social cohesion and engagement: democracy, social justice and international relations
