What is the role of national policy in supporting the international activities of higher education institutions (HEIs)? How can regional initiatives support global engagement? This session will explore how HEIs, specifically in 10 nations in South East Asia, can navigate national policy environments to ensure that they are still able to pursue internationalisation. The session will be based on findings from the British Council's 'Shape of global higher education' series.
