Shaping the future: The EAIE Research Agenda 2026

The EAIE recognises the importance of research to drive responsible, impactful internationalisation. Data-driven decision-making enables international higher education professionals and their institutions to act with confidence and insight, while research on issues affecting the field helps policymakers craft thoughtful, forward-looking policy with wide implications.  

If you work in internationalisation, the EAIE Research Agenda is designed for you. Explore its three pillars and gain insights that support meaningful impact in your institution.
