dc.description.abstractBased on interviews with 32 respondents, including professors, university officials and students, representing a small subset of Canadian universities, this study explores two-way student exchange programs with developing countries. The research finds that programs that have developed long-term relations with Southern counterparts, effectively communicated the benefits of cross-border study experiences and have flexible program designs, have achieved greater success. Mobility experience closely connected to academic disciplines fostered better learning outcomes. Students’ experiences outside of classrooms in developing country contexts as well as collaborative activities with Southern counterparts broadened and deepened their knowledge. The study suggests increasing reciprocal exchanges with the global South, initiating deliberate program planning processes and closely matching exchange programs to student profiles.en
