South Africa commemorates Women's Month in August as
a tribute to the more than 20 000 women who marched to the
Union Buildings on 9 August 1956 in protest against the
extension of Pass Laws to women. The Government of South
Africa declared August women's month and 9 August is
celebrated annually as Women's Day.

Welcoming Message from Orla Quinlan, President of
the International Education Association of South
Africa (IEASA)
A warm welcome to IEASA’s 22nd Anniversary Conference! This year’s theme focuses
on the Internationalisation of Higher Education in the 4th Industrial revolution: Innovation,
Diversity, Inequality and Inclusion. For all of us working in South African universities,
this is the annual opportunity to come together, share what we are all working on,
discuss opportunities, share challenges, make connections and make plans. For this
year’s conference, we are fortunate to also welcome a strong contingent of International
Educators.
Both the 2014 Global Dialogue, held in Port Elizabeth, which led to the Nelson Mandela
Bay Declaration, and the 2016 Global Conference, held in Kruger National Park in South
Africa, brought together International Education Associations leaders from all over the
world on South African soil. We are delighted to welcome the Network of International
Orla Quinlan,
Education Associations leaders to again come together in South Africa to have their

second official meeting of 2019.

International Office.
We are living in the exciting times of the fourth industrial revolution. IEASA is the smallest
International Education Association, but, in spite of our size, impactful. IEASA needs to
refresh, renew and reinvent itself and what better way to open up our thinking than have
leaders from other associations share their perspectives and engage with us. We know
that we, like any other organisation, need to continuously adapt to stay relevant and grow
in this world of change.

With commitment and purpose, we intend to continue to thrive as we build on a strong
track record and bring IEASA from strength to strength “Never doubt that a small group
of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that
ever has.” (Margaret Mead).

Message from Mr. Wiseman Jack, Deputy
President of the International Education
Association of South Africa (IEASA)
On behalf of the IEASA and people of South Africa especially the Capetonians, I am
pleased to welcome all the participants at this very important 2019 gathering which
marks the first theme of IEASA Conference addressing the new dilemma of the Fourth
Industrial Revolution. It is, indeed, a “kick-off” time to shape the Internationalisation
narrative for the African Higher Education system. Our get together here in Somerset
West marks yet another important step as we travel the road together with you from
all corners of the globe towards the new phase in the history of Internationalisation in
South Africa when the government is about to promulgate the Draft Policy Framework
for the Internationalisation of Higher Education in South Africa. I am privileged to have
the opportunity today to say these few words and I wish you, the participants, success
in your deliberations. Welcome to the fairest Cape, the southern tip of Africa and to our
magnificent shores.

the Conference Committee, IEASA. CIEE,
Director: Global Institute, Cape Town
It has been a pleasure to work with a team of dedicated committed international
educators in preparing the IEASA conference for 2019. This would be impossible without
the tireless efforts of many volunteers, as well as the significant sponsorship and support
IEASA has received. In particular, I would like to acknowledge:
The universities of South Africa. IEASA exists to advocate, promote and support
the internationalisation of Higher Education by providing a professional forum for
institutions and individuals to address challenges and develop strategic opportunities
in international education in Africa and the rest of the developing world. The annual
conference is one such initiative, and the universities have graciously released their
IE staff and practitioners for the purpose of attendance, and indeed supported that
