Challenges and Opportunities for the Coming Decade

Professor Lawrence Taylor, the recently appointed Dean of International Education at NUI Maynooth, explored what internationalisation means from the perspective of the higher education institution, asking what is its value and what new strategies of internationalisation are emerging in a changing landscape in which institutions are required to both co-operate and compete at the same time?

Sr Alice Drajea, an Irish Aid Study Fellow from Uganda, offered some personal reflections on international education as an opportunity and a tool for capacity building and development.
