The Observatory on Borderless Higher Education is pleased to announce the 2012 Global Forum, entitled "New Players and New Directions: Concepts and Models of International Branch Campuses." It will be held at the Prince Hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on April 25-26, 2012. This event will be built around the recently released report, International Branch Campuses: Data and Developments, and will afford the opportunity to interact and debate with IBC practitioners. Online registration is now open at: www.tcp-events.co.uk/obhe2012.

The objectives of the Forum will be as follows:

• To participate in workshops and discussions with existing and potential practitioners about the full range of considerations when starting and operating international branch campuses (IBCs),
• To critically evaluate the latest data on, and unfolding landscape of IBCs, as conveyed in the Observatory’s new report,
• To engage with government officials from existing and prospective host countries on how IBCs fit with their national economic and developmental strategies and goals.

The format will combine plenaries, parallel sessions, and expert workshops.

The Observatory is now accepting proposals for individual and panel presentations at the Global Forum. Proposals should indicate speaker(s), presentation title, and provide an abstract of 200-250 words. The deadline for proposals is Friday, March 9, 2012.
