On November 8, 2023 the Innovation Fund hosted a capacity building workshop at the Conference of the Americas on International Education (CAEI) in Las Vegas, Nevada. This dynamic capacity building opportunity provided participants with opportunities to learn effective practices for expanding international student mobility, building effective institutional partnerships, and competing successfully for 100K grant resources. The workshop combined interactive sessions and plenaries focused on helping higher education institutions (HEIs) prepare for upcoming competition rounds and learn about best practices in partnership development and tips for success on how to stimulate and enhance programs that will increase study abroad between institutions in the Western Hemisphere.
Breakout sessions included 100K panels on:
- Diversity & inclusion
- Sustainability of 100K-funded projects
- Proposal writing
- And more!
