Flows of international students between the African continent and China

In this season, we’ve already touched on emerging regional hubs attracting international students from the perspective of India, where policy is pushing for internationalization on campuses. Today, we look at students headed to China from the continent of Africa. With us to discuss these flows is Dr. Benjamin Mulvey, Lecturer in Equitable Education Systems and Policy at the University of Glasgow.
