Going Global is the British Council’s conference for leaders of international education to debate the future of further and higher education. As the digital world transforms our society, it brings both immense opportunities and significant risks. New technologies and platforms are revolutionizing the way that knowledge is produced, accessed and used globally. Solutions to many of the world’s greatest challenges are increasingly within reach. The speed and scale of change is also disrupting labor markets and business models, radically changing the nature of jobs and the skills required. While technologies are creating huge opportunities and wealth for some, many more remain excluded, deepening inequality .Historically, international tertiary education has fulfilled a unique position as a global knowledge producer, developer of high level skills and powerful anchor in local and global society.
