A call for expression of interest is ongoing for the Going Global 2024 -The Conference for Leaders of International Tertiary Education.
Going Global is a conference for leaders in international education to debate the future of further and higher education. The Going Global Africa conference will provide a platform to foster engagement with and learn about, regional and global challenges in tertiary education and identify ways in which regional and international collaboration can strengthen capacity at system, institutional, and individual levels, ultimately contributing to improved outcomes for young Africans.
The event is designed as a face-to-face conference. To ensure wider participation, pre-identified sessions will be livestreamed. The Going Global 2024 conference will be curated to cater specifically to an audience interested in addressing tertiary education opportunities and challenges facing Africa. The focus will be on post-secondary education, delivered in universities, colleges, and specific TVET providers, and the systems within which these institutions operate.
