Description
Internationalisation at Home (IaH) takes different forms depending on the educational context, discipline and region. At the same time, many of the questions surrounding IaH are shared across contexts.
In this webinar, we explore how higher education institutions in Chile and Colombia approach IaH. How do they connect local and regional perspectives with an international outlook? How can the local and the global strengthen each other? And what can Dutch higher education learn from their approaches?
Speakers from Chile and Colombia will share their perspectives on IaH and examples from their own practice. Why is IaH important, and who is involved? And how can IaH move from projects towards sustainable implementation once projects have come to an end?
We will also explore topics including the interplay between the local and the global, and the sustainable embedding of IaH in education. IaH beyond borders!
