Over the summer, I talked to @DrJSarkar & @DustinHosseini on 'can you undertake decolonising frome the centre of empire' for The Pluriversity Podcast at @UofGlasgow. It has now dropped, along w/episodes with Dr Mushonga, @rowenaarshad & others. Listen at: shorturl.at/prAPT

Many thanks @CHEI_Unicatt It was fabulous to present this session with @fionajanehunter! Great engagement and feedback from participants reiterate the gap, importance and the need for intentional systematic integration of inclusivity in internationalisation policy and practice.
