IAUP shares insights at Wenner-Gren Foundations / Young Academy of Sweden Symposium

The global pandemic has had a profound impact on international higher education and research, with institutions having to rapidly adapt to a new reality in which digital technologies have become essential for teaching and learning, as well as for carrying out research. Speaking about this impact, Dr. Fernando León-García shared his insights at the Symposia “Internationalization and Academic Mobility in the 21st Century”, which took place in Stockholm, Sweden, from June 1–4, 2022.

Organized by the Wenner-Gren Foundations and the Young Academy of Sweden, the symposium brought together researchers, representatives of funding agencies, associations, and higher-education policy makers to discuss recent developments such as climate change, globalization, the corona virus pandemic, digitalization, and artificial intelligence, and their impact on internationalization and academic mobility.
