Democratizing International Education Through Internationalization of the Curriculum

Thursday, May 29, 2025
3:00 PM – 3:50 PM PST
The session presents and discusses the results of a research project that adapted a recognized framework of curriculum internationalization to produce a model for the Latin American context. Presenters share two case studies of the model's implementation in Brazil and Ecuador.

Learning Objectives:

  • Analyze how the context-adapted framework from Leask (2015) can facilitate and inform discussions regarding the internationalization of the curriculum within higher education institutions, with the aim of promoting equity and inclusion.
  • Analyze the application and implementation of the adapted framework in two South American universities, as well as to explore its potential for replication in diverse contexts.
  • Apply the principles of the adapted framework to curriculum internationalization activities in higher education institutions in different contexts.
  • Develop a sense of urgency for the democratization of internationalization in the context of the Global South and worlwide.
