This webinar explored the transformative opportunities offered by the US-UK Fulbright Global Challenges Teaching Awards, supported by AAC&U in partnership with the US-UK Fulbright Commission. These awards empower faculty members in the United States and the United Kingdom to co-create innovative virtual exchange courses addressing today’s most pressing global challenges, including climate action, disinformation and misinformation, health inequality, and peace and justice.

What to expect in this webinar

  • learn about the program’s goals, structure, and impact;
  • discover how to build meaningful transatlantic partnerships and enhance teaching through international collaboration; and
  • gain insights into the application process, eligibility requirements, and key dates for the 2025 cycle.

This is the first of a two-part webinar series. The second session, on January 9, focused on the role of international education and academic administrators in the success of the awards program. Topics included how institutions can support faculty and integrate virtual exchange into broader internationalization efforts.
