Session 07.07

Eroding the barriers to growing and nurturing true global citizens

Universities must use their admissions processes to re-establish a balance in talent capacity between the Global South, where more of the world’s youth is located, and the Global North, where the most well-established schools and workforce demand can be found. In this session, we will look at how all students can best be supported in selecting higher education institutions, understanding their options, gaining admission and charting a course to a truly impactful future.
