Discussion – Global Learning and Student International Activities in the New Normal (livestreamed via Zoom)

International learning for students has extended beyond exchanges and study abroad to ‘internationalisation at home’, an emphasis on SDGs and global challenges, diversity and inclusion, and also virtual learning and exchange prompted by the pandemic limits on travel.

Where should our emphasis be as institutions and as a very diverse network? What should we be doing differently post-pandemic? Are there new ideas for collaboration? Post-pandemic, what considerations for student welfare need to be taken into account? How does a more polarised international environment affect us in education and research? How can we continue to develop trust and cooperation for the benefit of students and our societies?

6:30 - 8:30 p.m.

Opening of Day 2 of Senior International Leaders’ Meeting

9:10 - 11:00 a.m.

Discussion – Scaling Up Initiatives on Global Challenges

Member universities are working hard on global challenges. APRU has many programs which are performing well. But is this the right strategy? Are we scaling up for impact or should we be satisfied with current scale and speed? Or should we incubate, stabilize and spin-off? Proposals for a network of networks has its attractions but how to do it effectively so that there is more action not less? How crucial are links to international organizations, external partnerships and funding for a more effective strategy? How do we deliver these relationships?

11:45 - 1:30 p.m.

Working Lunch – Shaping the Network for Impact

The APRU network has transformed substantially in the past few years. From the growing number of members, launching of new initiatives, research programs and activities, to creating a stronger and specialized team at the Secretariat, we are acquiring more capacity. How can member universities and the International Secretariat relate more effectively to each other to achieve our goals?

1:30 - 1:45 p.m.
