Virtual Discussion

April 4 | 8:00pm EST

Following a panel at AIEA, all are invited to join virtual discussion hosted by the National Academy for International Education on key questions driving the future of our field. What are some of the fundamental assumptions in international education that we don’t examine enough? What are some of the critical questions we need to be thinking about? Building on initial thoughts heard during AIEA, this discussion will continue to interrogate those questions – and more – among colleagues in an informal, virtual setting.
