The Global Student Education Forum (formerly known as the 'Oxford – Cambridge Education Forum') is an independent non-partisan student-led initiative. Its ultimate goal is to provide an on-line platform where students of universities around the world can engage in meaningful discussions and debates on education theories, policies and practices. Each term, the Forum also organises high profile guest speaker and social events where members can further extend their professional and social network.
Further, through the generosity of our sponsors, the Forum intends to make available Education-related research grants for students in need. Recently, the Forum has secured a sponsorship deal with Teach First, Adam Smith Institute, and Cambridge Education, a UK-based education consultancy firm.
