Sustainable and Inclusive Internationalization:
Reimagining Approaches in Higher Education in an Era of Global Uncertainties
York University is hosting the Sustainable and Inclusive Internationalization Virtual Conference, co-organized by York International, the UNESCO Chair in Reorienting Education Towards Sustainability and international partners, from January 20th to 22nd, 2021. The Conference will bring together scholars, international mobility professionals and practitioners, policy makers, sustainability experts and other stakeholders to discuss the evolving status of international mobility in higher education in Canada and globally, critically reflect on where we are now, and to collectively build a future vision of international mobility that is inclusive, innovative and responsive to the global sustainability challenges of our times.
Until 30 November 2020 (extended deadline!), York University invites you to submit proposals with inputs through keynotes, panel presentations and posters/other forms of art on the following six themes here:
- International mobility in practice: institutional, national, and regional responses
- Greening student and scholar exchange: Concrete ideas and practices.
- Leveraging technology and digital learning: Can we experience “abroad online”?
- Mobility programs beyond academics: global and community engagement
- Inclusive student exchanges and experiences
- Assessment of intercultural development in mobility programs
Early registration is now open for those who would like to participate in the conference. You can register for the conference here.

We look forward to discussing the futures of internationalization, mobility and global outreach strategies with you!
