Encouraging internationalization to be mainstreamed throughout MENA is the objective that this report seeks to achieve by way of stimulating regional policy dialogue on the subject.

It suggests that adapting to the “new normal” through the deeper implementation of internationalization “at home” – a dimension that does not require physical mobility and, being implemented within domestic environments, has a much wider reach – may help enable the region to make strides towards catching up on the internationalization agenda. 2021-03-26T14:13:25Z 2021-03-26T14:13:25Z 2020 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/493031616043477562/Internationalization-of-Tertiary-Education-in-the-Middle-East-and-North-Africa http://hdl.handle.net/10986/35316 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work Economic & Sector Work :: Other Education Study Middle East and North Africa |
