Analysis highlights the role of international education in social development, with implications for policymakers and universities in Serbia.
The paper focuses on analyzing the importance of international education as a key factor in social development, with special attention to the challenges faced by individuals, policymakers, and universities. Through historical context, publicly available data, and empirical research, the paper emphasizes that international education is fundamentally essential for the continuous development of states. According to data from the World Trade Organization, countries that promote research and international mobility of the academic community are leaders in international trade, capital flow, and foreign direct investment. In the case of Serbia, there is awareness of the benefits of attracting academics from abroad, but problems in coordination and creating better conditions for their integration are becoming apparent. However, the collected data also show that Serbian students abroad face similar challenges. In conclusion, the paper offers recommendations for the development of public policies regarding international students in Serbia.
