WIT, Hans De. THE FUTURE OF INTERNATIONALIZATION OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN CHALLENGING GLOBAL CONTEXTS. ETD - Educ. Temat. Digit. [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.3, pp.538-545.  Epub June 27, 2021. ISSN 1676-2592.  https://doi.org/10.20396/etd.v22i3.8659471.

Internationalization has been over the past three decades one of the key focus points of (inter)national and institutional policies for higher education, with two related components: internationalization abroad, and internationalization at home. The 'abroad' component: mobility of students, faculty and programs, has been more predominant than the 'at home' component: internationalization of the curriculum and learning outcomes, perceived as a neoliberal and western paradigm. What will be the future of internationalization? Do we see a return from competition to cooperation? What will the impact of the changing global economic, ecological and political context be? These questions will be addressed in a critical analytical way in this paper, taking into account the impact of Covid-19 on the internationalization of higher education.

Keywords : Internationalization; Higher Education; University Policy; Covid-19.
