About The Event

The landscape of international education is undergoing significant transformation, especially in traditional study abroad destinations. These changes, driven by evolving governmental policies and shifting economic conditions, have profoundly impacted the recruitment of African students. Traditional methods of student recruitment are no longer sufficient to address the complexities of the current environment, where discerning genuine students from economic migrants presents an increasing challenge.

The African Student Recruitment Conference 2025 aims to address these challenges head-on. This conference will gather key stakeholders, including universities, colleges, local recruitment agents, and policy makers, to collaboratively explore innovative and effective strategies for engaging with African students. Through a series of expert-led panels, workshops, and networking sessions, attendees will gain insights into the latest trends and best practices in international student recruitment.

ABOUT THE EVENT VENUE

The Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2) is a historic ocean liner that has been transformed into a luxurious hotel located at Port Rashid in Bur Dubai, Dubai. The QE2 was originally built for the Cunard Line in Clydebank, Scotland, and was launched on September 20, 1967. She embarked on her maiden voyage on May 2, 1969, and soon became one of the most famous ocean liners in the world.

In 2008, the QE2 was retired from active service and was purchased by Istithmar, the investment arm of Dubai World, with plans to convert her into a floating hotel. After several years of refurbishment and careful preservation of her original features, the QE2 was officially opened as a hotel on April 18, 2018.

This venue will host the 10th anniversary of the African Student Recruitment Conference in 2025.
