Given the significant impact on students and faculty mobility due to COVID-19, many universities re-evaluated their internationalisation strategies and naturally the value of internationalisation at home becomes more relevant. Global competence involves cognitive, socio-emotional, and ethical dimensions as students investigate the world, recognize perspectives, communicate ideas, and take action. The questions remain how can we prepare our student well for the changing demands of living in a globally connected world to expand opportunities for global and intercultural understanding for all student. At this contentious moment, preparing for global competence and thoughtful cross-cultural inquiry is an urgent practical and moral necessity. Thus, the internationalisation at home programmes are being implemented integrating international and intercultural dimensions into teaching and learning, research, extra-curricular activities, and community engagement with the main objectives to enhance global competence of our students. Internationalization at home also helps university administrators and faculty to change their view on international education from add-on services to an essential education, promoting intercultural understanding and people to people relationships. In this session, case studies in developing global competence for students from some of the Southeast Asia countries will be presented in the form of policy, governance, strategy and activities.
