Virtual Global Learning Project 

using technology to foster transformational learning 

About us

We are an international, multidisciplinary project focused on both research and development, aiming to build capacity across three countries to make virtual global learning accessible to all students.
Capacity Building

Our project aims to build capacity across three locations—Mauritius, South Africa, and Western Australia—by enabling staff and students to collaborate on research, prototype development, and study tours.

Multidisciplinary Collaboration

We foster collaboration among early, mid-, and senior-career researchers from five institutions in three countries, spanning multiple disciplines.

Research and Development 

Our project emphasises research-driven collaboration, leading to the development of prototypes and culminating in virtual study tours for participants.

Aim: To make virtual global learning accessible to all students.

Transformational sustainability education

Virtual global learning is inclusive of all students (UNSDG G4 & G10), minimises carbon emissions, reduces footprints created by international travel, and creates 'environmentally sustainable communities' (Agenda 2063: G7; UNSDG G12, G13).

Mission: To pilot virtual study tours.
