THEME: RESILIENCE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES
How resilient is internationalisation and the people and institutions it touches? The ongoing COVID-19 crisis is only the latest in a series of stress tests for international education in recent years. This issue of Forum seeks to highlight the many faces of resilience in internationalisation at the personal, programmatic and institutional levels, but also the many ways in which internationalisation itself, as a professional field and as an overarching trend in higher education, may need to show resilience in these uncertain times.
