CONAHEC's 20th North American Higher Education Conference was held in partnership with the Mexican Association for International Education's (AMPEI) 2020 Annual Conference in an all-virtual format from December 1-5, 2020.  High-level presenters joined us from North America and around the world to discuss higher education collaboration in the context of the global pandemic and how their institutions have adapted and the new ways they are providing quality international higher education opportunities to students, faculty, and staff.  The conference proceedings are still available online in case you'd like to learn how others are achieving their internationalization objectives in these challenging times. https://elnet.org.  Let us know if we can help you find anything!
