Gondwe leads SA delegation at Going Global Conference in London Higher Education and Training Deputy Minister, Dr Mimmy Gondwe, is leading a higher education delegation to the Going Global Conference, currently underway in London, in the United Kingdom (UK). The conference, hosted by the British Council from 28–30 October 2025, brings together international education leaders to network, discuss global policy issues, share best practices, and shape the future of higher education. “I am honoured that the British Council invited me to represent South Africa and our department on a global platform, participating in panel discussions and workshops on global education, collaboration, and sharing best practices. Discussions on Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) as skills development centres are crucial for gaining insights to take back home,” Gondwe said. The Deputy Minister is scheduled to participate in two high-level panel discussions. The first panel, taking place on Wednesday, focuses on “Opportunity-driven TVET: The Future of Skills Development”, and will feature experts from the United Kingdom, European Union, Malawi, and Ghana. Her second engagement, scheduled for Thursday, will be held under the theme: “Building Resilience for a Volatile Future . The session will emphasise the need for academic institutions to adapt and demonstrate resilience amidst geopolitical instability, budget constraints, and technological disruptions such as Artificial Intelligence. The second panel will include international experts from Türkiye, India, and the UK. The Deputy Minister will also use her working visit to explore opportunities for international collaboration, particularly in youth skills development, and potential scholarships programmes to benefit South African students. – SAnews.gov.za
