The Global Forum on Student Success is a community of global academic leaders from various disciplines and institutional types to advance student success as a universal human right and global common good for all irrespective of racial or social class. The forum advocates for and collaborates towards an inclusive, equitable quality education and the promotion of lifelong learning opportunities.
The Global Forum for Student Success was created out of the need for unified a unified vision for global student success. As there is no standard global definition, we work towards sharing culturally relevant and equitable strategies; building global understanding and agency; and proposing possible solutions to global challenges to student success.

This is an online-first community bringing together multiple voices that work on a voluntary basis and does not seek to advance any one institution or country. Resources are global and nonproprietary to be open source and accessible to people all over the world to share, inspire, innovate, and collaborate.
