Transnational education: A policymaking ...

BRITISH COUNCIL
About this episode

In this episode, Christine examines the rapid growth of transnational education (TNE), where students can access international learning without leaving their home countries. TNE comes in many forms, including joint degree programs, online courses, universities opening campuses abroad, and partnerships between universities across different nations. 


Christine is joined by Attorney Lily Freida Milla, Director of International Affairs Service at the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd) in the Philippines. An experienced policymaker, Lily shares her insights into how TNE is transforming education in the Philippines and beyond. Christine and Lily discuss what makes international partnerships successful and how TNE benefits students, institutions, and the countries involved. 


We also hear from filmmaker Amanda Mojilip – a TNE alumna from the University of Nottingham Malaysia, whose studies empowered her to become a voice for indigenous communities.  


Join Christine and guests as they explore how transnational education is helping to make our world better connected.
