Thank you so very much Jelena! You’re too kind 🙏🙏

We are fully open-access, independent and academic-owned. We publish articles about higher education with a global disposition (broadly defined). This includes research articles, critical reflections, and practice pieces. Please consider publishing with us! journal.libraries.wm.edu/global_highe...

Of course, the levy is a terrible idea and needs to be challenged. But please save a breath to also challenge its sheer disrespect in the way it speaks about migrants, not perpetuate dehumanization by further reducing us to economic objects.

Solidarity - our bank accounts definitely don't say those borders are open, do they? 😔

Should the government invest in upskilling its existing population? Of course! But the presence of migrants was never stopping them from doing so.

The logic was never A) We have a lot of migrants, and B) our population is underskilled, therefore C) Migrants caused our population to be underskilled

Mostly excited! But there's something kind of terrifying about letting go of something you've spent so much time on so that other people can take it forward.
