IAU Webinar Series on the Future of Higher Education

In recent years, new geopolitical tensions, rising nationalism and even the COVID-19 pandemic have questioned and diminished multilateralism and led to a more closed world. However, at the same time, the COVID-19 pandemic and other challenges that the world faces, such as climate change, food security, energy resources, demonstrated that local solutions are unfit for purpose and that only a global approach can lead to the resolution of these challenges.

The webinar will discuss the importance of international collaboration in a panel discussion format with speakers from all the different regions of the world. A Q&A session with the participants will follow it. This webinar forms part of a series developed by the IAU since 2020 and reflects on The Future of Higher education.

Times given are UTC
