A celebration of Warwick's global community, impact, connections and opportunities
Welcome to One World Warwick March 2026! One World Warwick proudly celebrates our University’s commitment to, and pride in, our global community, connections, opportunities and impact.
This March, our focus is on how Warwick connects out across the globe: from how we engage with our next generation of students through our open day events; to supporting our current students to have life-changing international educational and mobility opportunities around the globe, as well as with global communities online; to how we support our colleagues to create new collaborations with institutions around the world; as well as how we act to bring global leaders together here in the UK as well as at our Warwick Venice Centre, and elsewhere around the world to discuss and develop solutions to our most pressing problems. Keep an eye out on this page, and across University comms, for each of these opportunities as they are announced.
I am particularly delighted this March to be welcoming several new global institutional partners into our Warwick Global Network, with the establishment of new joint funding programmes with flagship institutions in mainland China, Europe, Hong Kong SAR and the USA. And here at home we are launching our new Warwick India Network, to bring together the large number of University members engaged in teaching, research and innovation with Indian partners so that we can collectively do more and have greater impact together.
So, with events on campus and with partners worldwide, One World Warwick invites you to connect, collaborate, celebrate, and explore new perspectives. Whether you're expanding your international experience, seeking support for new global collaborations, or deepening your understanding of our multicultural university, now is the time to get involved!
