Internationalization in Isolation: COVID-19 Implications

When a global health crisis ren- ders mobility impossible, making all universities de facto isolated and remote, researchers should look at ways to redefine and gen- eralize internationalization while removing the exclusive focus on mobility. Learning from the “un- usual suspects” of internation- alization—i.e., institutions that were considered remote before the crisis—is a unique opportu- nity to move the focus away from student mobility and foster more sustainable and inclusive inter- nationalization practices.
