When Pamela Baxter first came to Australia, it was as a wide-eyed traveller with a backpack and a dream. Decades later, she’s back, this time as Chief Product Officer at Cambridge University Press & Assessment, with a front-row seat to some of the biggest shifts happening in global education. In this episode of Global Horizons, Pamela joins host Rob Malicki in Canberra to talk about the changing face of international higher education, from her unlikely career path (including a stint in Westminster politics!) to her long tenure at Cambridge, where she’s seen firsthand how language, access, and integrity intersect in universities around the world. The conversation winds from light-hearted stories of gap years and cycling through Cambridge to deeply reflective questions about responsibility, equity, and the standards we uphold in global education. https://lnkd.in/gcpQm_yf
