The UWI Vice-Chancellor’s Report to University Council

VICE-CHANCELLOR’S REPORT TO COUNCIL 2022—2023

OPEN CAMPUS REPORT

FROM OPEN TO GLOBAL

The University Council approved the decision that the Open Campus be rebranded as the Global Campus, thus securing its tremendous legacy and the role it has for the future. This legacy, however, must be taken in the context of fundamental restructuring and reengineering. One major initiative will be a for-profit entrepreneurial income- generating business school, the International School for Development Justice (ISDJ). Centred within the parameters of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it will offer SDG-focused postgraduate academic programmes online. Simultaneously, the rebranded Global Campus seeks to improve and extend its operations throughout the Caribbean region.

“The Open Campus is optimally placed within the technology and experience spheres to shepherd The UWI and the region safely and efficiently into the digital global space and the Fourth Industrial Revolution.”

Pro Vice-Chancellor and Campus Principal Dr. Francis O. Severin
