This session will discuss how Kerala's higher education institutions can adopt global perspectives to improve the quality of education, develop cross-cultural skills in students, and prepare them better for a world that's increasingly interconnected. By learning from international best practices and creating diverse learning environments, Kerala can nurture graduates who have the skills to succeed in a diverse job market. The discussion will focus on strategies like internationalising course content, encouraging student and teacher exchanges, and using digital platforms for global collaboration. The goal is to highlight practical ways to give students a broader outlook, critical thinking skills, and the adaptability needed to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
