Available to Advance HE Members only.

Global practice sharing and learning are cornerstones of the support that Advance HE provides for its member institutions. Through funding small case studies, our Global Impact Grants are an opportunity for Advance HE members to share success stories about higher education projects that have had a demonstrable impact on their staff and/or students.    

Grants of up to £1,000 have been awarded to 15 successful applicants from Advance HEinternational member institutions and international membership beneficiaries to provide short case studies of recent practice (750-1000 words) that align with our overarching Grant themes.

The case studies will be published and shared on the Advance HE website and available to members as examples of international best practice.

The 2024-25 case studies

The projects are imaginative and focus on solving problems that our members across the world are grappling with. We hope that the insights the case studies offer will be extremely useful to other member institutions as they explore how successful projects can be applied in their context, benefiting their institutions, staff and students.
