INTERVIEW (In Swedish)
Bjarne Kirsebom on the history of STINT
Bjarne Kirsebom, then State Secretary at the Ministry of Education and Research, headed the planning of STINT in the early 1990s. He conceived of the Foundation during a flight to Australia. Today, 25 years later, STINT is starting to resemble the idea he had at the time, he says.
A national knowledge resource on internationalisation
STINT enhances the international competitiveness of Swedish higher education institutions by being a national knowledge resource on internationalisation. This role has become more important in an ever more globalised world, with increased competition, challenges and opportunities.
We offer knowledge and skills development in the area of internationalisation through trend analysis presented at seminars and workshops as well as in reports. Our trend analysis initiative includes presence in East Asia and North America through staff and offices in Shanghai and San Francisco, as well as networks with relevant research groups, research funders and think tanks in the area of internationalisation, both in Sweden and abroad.
STINT invests in academic cooperation with all countries outside EU/EFTA
