À propos de cet audio
Hundreds and thousands of students are traveling to countries throughout the world every year for acquiring knowledge and gaining prestige. Scholars are conferencing to and fro to know and to let know other scholars of their generated knowledge with the hope for the development and improvement of the world. However, the very same actions are fueling the climate crisis in the world. Unknowingly we may have often overlooked the issue. International mobility for higher education is something the necessity of which can never be denied. However, the darkness underneath the light is alarming.
