The Asian International Mobility for Students (AIMS) Programme is a regional flagship mobility initiative facilitated by the Southeast Asian Ministers of Education Organization Regional Centre for Higher Education and Development (SEAMEO RIHED), which comprises 80 universities across 9 countries. Established in 2009, the AIMS Programme has continued to advance the harmonisation and internationalisation processes of higher education towards a more inclusive and sustainable region.
With multiple social, economic, environmental, and public health challenges facing the world, SEAMEO RIHED’s AIMS Programme will continue to explore innovative approaches to learning and the integration of appropriate technologies for mobility, as well as promoting university social responsibility (USR) contributions in addressing societal challenges for a more sustainable future.
In this Webinar, the USRN and SEAMEO RIHED have invited regional and international experts to share global trends in USR, demonstrate how USR can promote sustainable development, and showcase USR good practices from participating AIMS universities from Brunei Darussalam and Malaysia.
