Luísa Veloso (Iscte-University Institute of Lisbon, Portugal) The internationalisation of higher education raises a set of challenges to institutions, professors, students and researchers. In an era of rising mobility, mercantilisation of education and research, the Southern European countries face difficulties and challenges towards the conditions to provide students, researchers and professors. In this round table I propose to discuss these topics, by debating what is the understanding of internationalisation, the strategies of the universities and the conditions to be taken into account.
