ULAB International Affairs Office

The Office of International Affairs, ULAB is proud to celebrate the global recognition of “Global Talks”, which secured Rank 55 in Category A7 at the World University Rankings for Innovation (WURI) 2026.

Global Talks is an international dialogue platform initiated by the Office of International Affairs to connect scholars, diplomats, journalists, practitioners, policymakers, and thought leaders from around the world in meaningful conversations on contemporary global issues, emerging ideas, culture, media, diplomacy, sustainability, innovation, and society.

This recognition reflects ULAB’s growing commitment to international engagement, intellectual exchange, interdisciplinary collaboration, and global citizenship. It also demonstrates how universities can create impactful spaces for dialogue that go beyond borders and classrooms.

The Office of International Affairs expresses sincere gratitude to the university leadership for their continuous support and encouragement toward innovative internationalization initiatives. We also thank all speakers, partners, moderators, participants, faculty members, students, and collaborators who contributed to making Global Talks a meaningful and impactful platform.

Together, we will continue building bridges between ideas, people, and the world.
