SXSW 2024
The True Impacts of Education on Global Mobility and Society
Description:
Global mobility is driven by passports, VISAs, and diplomas – all of which are out of reach for much of the world’s population. But allowing access to broader education and learning opportunities could change that, and not just those for those with wealth and means. Through a rich discussion with experts spanning the economic, immigration, and academic spaces, attendees will gain a better understanding of the possibilities of removing the friction that prevents true global mobility and what that means for our educational systems globally.
