In this episode, ICEF’s Craig Riggs and Martijn van de Veen discuss the latest developments in our sector, including a newly announced Canadian extension of expiring post-study work permits and Japan's plans to rebuild its foreign enrolment after COVID.

The episode features a special panel discussion on the global student housing crunch with Kelly-Ann Watson, managing director of The Class Foundation; Adam Lee, CEO of StudentRoomStay; and Rhys Dumbleton, business development director for Savills.

We conclude with a closer look at one of the biggest sending markets in the world: India.
