In recognition of the many innovations that have made research and study abroad more accessible at Northwestern University, we are one of just four institutions to receive the 2023 Senator Paul Simon Award for Comprehensive Internationalization. Given by NAFSA: Association of International Educators, the award recognizes “overall excellence in integrating international education throughout all facets of university and college campuses.” The Northwestern Buffett Institute for Global Affairs led the University’s global strategic planning process, establishing the new Global Council. Serving as Northwestern’s global governance structure, the council is a group of senior leaders from each of Northwestern’s schools. Coordinating efforts across schools has strengthened faculty’s transnational research, yielded new Global Working Groups and made available sources of funding for global research. Incentivized by Northwestern Buffett’s annual Idea Incubation Process, Global Working Groups aim to address the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, taking on global issues that range from antibiotic resistance to the disproportionate impacts of environmental challenges.
