Preparing the documentation and presentation for the PhD colloquium to be held in July 2021. Potential research question: How does the University Global Engagement agenda advance university and government policy towards community educational and social outcomes? Sub-questions: 1. What is the function of Global Engagement at universities? 2. How does Global Engagement advance the core business of universities i.e. Teaching, Learning & Research? 3. How does Global Engagement impact international relations? (How does it play a role in soft power?) 4. Does Global Engagement have social influences and outcomes on students and a nation’s policies? If so, what evidence is there of these influences and outcomes? 5. Under what conditions does Global Engagement become more critical for universities? (e.g. what role does it play in a pandemic) 6. What shapes ideologies & agendas across Indonesia, Vietnam & Australia?
