Save the Date: IRRS 2024 - 20-22 November 2024

Inter-regional partners and colleagues in higher education will meet at the 3rd Inter-Regional Research Symposium (IRRS) in Bangkok, Thailand at the Sukosol Hotel, from 20 to 22 November 2024.

Held over two and a half days, the symposium provides an inclusive platform for networking, learning and sharing and attracts attendees, presenters and speakers from Asia and abroad.

Organised on a biennial basis up to 2030 to unpack different aspects related to the contributions of higher education towards sustainable development, each edition of the Symposium also expands the inter-regional focus through partnerships in higher education by providing an enhanced opportunity to learn from Southeast Asia and other regions of the world collectively.

This year’s theme, ‘transforming higher education’, invites educators, researchers, policymakers and thought leaders to explore the different dimensions of transformation across the international higher education landscape. Join us in Bangkok on 20-22 November 2024. We also encourage you to follow us through this site and social media to receive news about the programme and other important symposium news.
