Date : du 13-09-2016 au 16-09-2016
Lieu : Liverpool
Organisation : European Association for International Education (EAIE)
Programme :
John Lennon had a dream of a world at peace. As international educators, we have a dream of higher education that transcends national borders, nurtures global citizens and moves us closer to freedom, equality and peace around the world. We are bringing this dream to Liverpool for the 28th Annual EAIE Conference in 2016. International education has the power to break barriers and bolster bridges. It is our duty to seek ways of harnessing this power and driving the internationalisation agenda. The EAIE Conference provides a time and space for those who share this altruistic vision of international higher education to innovate, discover, and to dream.
The programme, with over 170 sessions and over 20 workshops, offers the ideal opportunity to drive our internationalisation agenda together.
