Going Global is a series of international educational conferences hosted by the British Council, offering an open forum for policy makers and practitioners from around the world to discuss issues facing the international education community. Since its inception in 2004, Going Global has grown from a bi-annual event in the UK to an annual event travelling the globe. Each year it attracts over 1,000 registered delegates from across the further and higher education sectors and a variety of other industries with perspectives on international education.

The conferences consist of a series of sessions based around the year's chosen themes. Sessions take the form of group debates, poster and video presentations, panel discussions and an opening and closing plenary. The event also features an opening reception that provides the ideal platform for networking. Several sponsored or private events take place around the conferences, which have rapidly become a fixture of the global education calendar.
