As part of the events prior to the 3rd UNESCO World Higher Education Conference that will take place in Barcelona from May 18 to 20, 2022, UNESCO IESALC carried out a consultation for Latin America and the Caribbean that collected the voices of the different groups of interest related to higher education (HEI leaders, academics, students, governments, rectors’ conferences, university associations/networks, employers, multilateral organizations, etc.) on ten key issues for higher education.
For the consultation, UNESCO IESALC carried out ten webinars between November 2021 and March 2022. Its themes revolved around the ten key issues that the World Conference will address.
On 7 April 2022, from 9:00h to 10:00h (Caracas, UTC -4), UNESCO IESALC will hold an online seminar with the participation of representatives of the partners in this program to close the cycle for the Latin American and Caribbean Consultation for the UNESCO World Higher Education Conference.
