"Internationalisation at Home is an incredibly important activity which helps our students to learn more from each other on our diverse campuses. The articles in this book show how investment and co-creation in international experience within individual institutions can unlock important resources for the enhancement of international relations and knowledge diplomacy with much wider global potential." Anne Marie-Graham CEO, UK Council for International Student Affairs"Internationalisation at Home is key to delivering a comprehensive approach to internationalisation. The articles in this book offer a good range of examples which show what can be achieved by students and staff through developing and co-creating opportunities for curriculum internationalisation. Sharing experiences and challenges can help raise the profile of this important aspect of our work, enabling wider engagement with its benefits."Professor Elspeth JonesEmerita Professor, Internationalisation of Higher Education, Leeds Beckett University, UK; Series Editor, Internationalization in Higher EducationMore details
