The global trends in higher education highlight the growing popularity of international education shift towards innovation and better productivity that demand updated and high-quality human resources. And on the supply side, it creates pressure on families to send their children to educational institutions not only within the country but also abroad. In the context of Nepal, the trend of opening higher education institutions and students going abroad for study accelerated after 1990. Students enrolled in the country and abroad are establishing networks to work through the exchange of ideas and products in the global market. In this paper, I present the primary findings from my research on the economic impact of globalization on education in Nepal by using the supply side human resource data of student enrollment in higher education in the country and Nepali students abroad, and its impact on trade, migration, foreign direct investment and remittance to the national economy of Nepal. For this study, 20 years of secondary data of above mentioned variables have been analyzed with the help of the econometric method of causal relations. Results show a positive impact of globalization on the economy of Nepal. The findings will be useful for making policy recommendations to developing countries like Nepal to enhance education by grasping the opportunities globalization offers.

The research is analyzing the Impact of Capital Acumulation, Export, MEC, Inflation and Governace System on Indonesian Economic Growth. The model tries to combine the supply side (capital accumulation and MEC) and the demand side (export and inflation), also by including government systems for predicting the factors affecting economic growth. The data used are secondary data obtained from BPS, BI and other data sources from 1987 to 2016 (except data from 1998, 1999, and 2000 due to data in that year's is extreme). To find out whether there is a difference in the phenomenon of economic growth in centralized systems with decentralize system used dummy variables. The results of the study showed that the model is significant in explaining changes in economic growth. The impact of capital accumulation on economic growth is positive significant, as well as the impact of exports. But the impact of MEC as well as of inflation on economic growth is not significant. By seeing that the variable dummy has a significant positive impact on economic growth, it can be argued that economic growth in the decentralized system is better than the centralized.

Temporary Closure

The COVID-19 pandemic has had profound consequences on the social, economic and cultural life at the global level. The educational dimension has also been affected in the schools’ regular functioning, with the temporary closure of educational institutions, as well as the impediment of face-to-face classes. This perspective paper aims to add to the knowledge already produced on this topic, by arguing that these challenging conditions can be a pivotal moment of opportunity for reshaping higher education, with the implementation, development and diffusion, among academics and students, of digital technologies. The paper also discusses the role of leadership in the transformation of organizational culture in higher education. The methodology used to carry out this study is qualitative, and the technique employed to analyze the data collected was content analysis. Research studies, in diverse formats, already published on the COVID-19 topic and its impacts were the elected data sources. The results of this document analysis allow us to conclude that there is the need to improve the digital sustainable development in teaching in higher education, which entails profound challenges that higher education institutions need to face and overcome if they want to be at the forefront of success in the international education market. This is where the authors seek to contribute, by offering insights on the challenges—but also the opportunities—that COVID-19 poses to higher education at a time when it needs to redefine its teaching methods, leadership models, and interaction channels, by going digital towards the improvement of the sustainable development of its teaching.
