Become a memberAbout us
We believe that international collaboration is central to achieving our mission of building a better world through higher education.
By bringing universities together from around the world – and crucially the people who study and work within them ‒ we help to advance knowledge, promote understanding, broaden minds, and improve lives.
We champion higher education as a cornerstone of stronger societies, supporting our members, partners, and stakeholders as they adapt to a changing world.
We are:
- A catalyst for positive change
- A platform for collaboration
- A champion of higher education
