NAFSA conference 2019 attracted many thousands of visitors to the US capital this year, right into the heart of the United States – to Washington D.C. Under this year’s motto “Global Leadership, Learning, and Change”, the exchange and networking of all participants has been put into a professional framework that should serve as a reflection and point out current changes and challenges in international education. After all, International education is an invaluable asset to the global exchange of knowledge, sciences and academics, and continues to evolve in a global, progressive and technological modern world. It is important to recognize these new trends and changes and to use them in a targeted manner.
As was the case last year, the associates of the Organization for Worldwide Education were present in Washington D.C and took the opportunity to expand the already existing network and to forge new partnerships. Overall, NAFSA 2019 has been a positive conference with many new impressions, acquaintances and opportunities to evaluate. The Associates of the Organization for Worldwide Education are already looking forward to continuing the discussions started at NAFSA 2019 at the upcoming EAIE in Helsinki and to establishing new acquaintances and cooperations.
