Up to six UK academics will be selected to receive the travel grant, which will cover travel expenses to attend the workshop in Thailand.
This workshop is a unique opportunity for participants to engage directly with senior policymakers and university leaders from Southeast Asia. Participants will explore critical issues related to Gender Equity, Diversity, and Inclusivity and contribute to ongoing efforts to embed gender-sensitive leadership and practices in higher education.
