@dcfrombc @wickhambarbara @jimcorbettindia @JonathanKennedy I've now tried N India and S India (@periyarreserve) with no luck on the 🐅 front... maybe destiny does lie in the E or NE? 😁 Having said which both Periyar and @jimcorbetpark are wonderful even without seeing 🐅🐅!

Understanding the value of culture... we reveal the initial findings today from our mapping of Kazakhstan’s new creative and cultural economy. Thnx to @CityUniLondon #Narxos and #KBTU researchers. @kzBritish

[Rowan Kennedy @rowan_kennedy]

And here's the link to watch the livestream, where @CommonCapital is currently introducing the research that @intrac_uk & @SocialEnt_UK have carried out into the #socialenterprise sector in #Kyrgyzstan: https://t.co/raKklYclEX

[Rowan Kennedy @rowan_kennedy]

Opening today's #socialenterprise forum in #Bishkek with Kyrgyzstan's Association of Social Entrepreneurs and the Kyrgyz Government - working on how to strengthen the social enterprise ecosystem in #Kyrgyzstan @ukinkyrgyzstan @kzBritish @SocEntGlobal

[Rowan Kennedy @rowan_kennedy]

Did you know the #socialenterprise movement began in Rochdale in 1844? Or that many London buses are run by social enterprises? @juliet_cornford talks at @MyAUCA on the UK social enterprise sector and potential lessons for #CentralAsia. @SocEntGlobal @ukinkyrgyzstan

We're in Clash Magazine y'all https://t.co/BAHwbzj4zH

Social enterprise is providing young people in #Kyrgyzstan with new livelihoods. Looking forward to finding out how big the sector is and the extent to which it contributes to economic and social development when we reveal our research this week with @SocialEnt_UK @SocEntGlobal

[Rowan Kennedy @rowan_kennedy]

#Socialenterprise has the potential to play an important part in Kyrgyzstan's development: @juliet_cornford talks to @bbckyrgyz about social enterprise in the UK and how @SocEntGlobal and @kzBritish are supporting the growth of the sector in #Kyrgyzstan

[Jim Buttery @JimButtery]

A titan of world science, Prof Stephen Hawking was also incredibly generous of spirit. We @BritishCouncil remember him - from his inspirational lectures to schoolchildren in #Israel and #Palestine to his hosting in Cambridge of student science competition winners from #Kazakhstan

Internationalization trends observed amongst regional universities in Kazakhstan... low number of overseas PhDs but increasing numbers of co-authored research publications and inbound international students on undergrad programmes

[Rowan Kennedy @rowan_kennedy]

Best bit of this guide for international students in the UK: "I expected people to dress fancy and have intellectual conversations all the time... But then I went to a drum and bass night and people just stood in front of the stage for hours. Someone was dressed as a watermelon" https://t.co/bQmGEO8ITg

[Aston International @Aston_Int]

https://t.co/7tDfVwIsDl #InternationalStudents @UUKIntl A great read from students who are currently studying at UK universities. #WeAreInternational

[Jim Buttery @JimButtery]

Sharing insights from the regions... universities from Kazakhstan’s outlying regions gather to discuss progress on internationalization following self assessment research from @Bruneluni and @alfarabikaznu

[Rowan Kennedy @rowan_kennedy]

#Kazakhstan's outlying regions are often last in line for education investment and opportunities - yet regional universities have made impressive steps towards internationalisation. Today's @kzBritish roundtable in #Almaty is dedicated to helping them share what they've learned

[Rowan Kennedy @rowan_kennedy]

And congratulations to all the finalists, each of whom thrilled, entertained and inspired the audience in their own way! https://t.co/rIAiUsjOLN
