Going Global is a conference for leaders in international education to debate the future of further and higher education. 

Since its inception in 2004, the British Council’s Going Global conference has provided a strategic forum for leaders in international education to connect, share knowledge and build a global network of senior leaders and policy influencers to shape the future of further and higher education.

As part of our new conference model, the Going Global international tertiary education conference will take place biennially in the UK. The next regional Going Global conference will be held in Africa. The event will take place in Abuja, Nigeria from 26-28 November 2024.
