WORLD UNIVERSITIES SUMMIT has been conceptualized by JGU with a vision to create a platform for universities worldwide to come together to help shape the Universities of the Future. Technological advancements, pedagogical and disciplinary innovations, academic research combined with globalization and deeper societal engagement, are now changing the very way higher education institutions function. Institutional reform, in this direction, would inevitably require risk-taking, innovation and learning from the past. We need to reimagine the Universities of the Future to strengthen their vision and commitment towards institutional resilience, social responsibility and community impact.
