1 total work
This volume presents the impacts of international higher education on citizen diplomacy. Based on the assumption that international higher education is a key driving factor of citizen diplomacy, the empirical studies in this book examine the learning outcomes from five mobility programs of international higher education (inbound study abroad, outbound study abroad, international service-learning, international internship, and online study abroad) in cultivating students’ empathy and goodwill towards people in international higher education partner countries. It contributes to increasing awareness of international higher education by further supporting the argument that its functions are utilized not only in the educational but also in the diplomatic realm.
