Forced Internationalization and Opportunities for Campuses | January 24, 2023
According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), there are nearly 100 million displaced people around the world. Approximately 40% of this population are under 18 years old (UNHCR, 2022). Although access to quality schooling is a human right, a marginal 5% of refugee youth attend a university or college (UNHCR, 2021). Access to educational opportunities will be critical for improving the quality of life for many members of displaced populations and the society at large. The international community has set a target of increasing global refugee higher education enrollment to 15% by 2030 (known as the “15by30” goal). The Global Compact on Refugees that was adopted in 2019 encourages academic institutions to take an active role in achieving this target. This workshop is designed for higher education leaders to examine how they can facilitate refugee access to higher education and foster campus internationalization.

Community Engagement Abroad: Perspectives and Practices on Service, Engagement, and Learning Overseas
A landmark in our understanding of international community-engaged learning programs, this book invites educators to rethink everything from disciplinary assumptions to the role of higher education in a globalizing world. Tapping the many such programs developed at Michigan State University during the last half-century, the volume develops a comprehensive framework for analyzing study-abroad programs with a community-engagement focus. More than a how-to guide, it also offers seven theoretically framed case studies showing how these experiences can change students, faculty, and communities alike. The purposeful broadening of who is involved in these types of international learning programs leads to conceptual transformation and self-reflection within the participants. The authors take the reader on a fascinating journey through how they changed as a result of designing and delivering programs in full collaboration with community partners. The arguments given in this volume for developing truly reciprocal, mutually beneficial partnerships beyond the academy are powerful and persuasive.
Historically Underrepresented Faculty and Students in Education Abroad
This book examines how the unique perspectives of BIPOC faculty and students must be integrated into the undergraduate curriculum to expose students of color to education abroad experiences, enhance cultural awareness and sensitivity, and lend to a broader diversity and inclusion perspective. This edited volume, written by authors of color, argues that education abroad programs not only provide essential academic and cultural enrichment but can also be an important nexus of innovation. When approached within a creative, interdisciplinary, and holistic framework, these programs are ripe with opportunities to engage various constituencies and a potent source of strategies for bolstering diversity, recruitment, retention, and graduation. Despite a tendency to view study abroad as a luxurious option for persons with wealth and means, the editors and their authors argue that global education should be thought of as a fundamental and integral part of higher education, for all students, in a global era.
