“…The HE sector has attached diverse definitions and practices to internationalisation, from recruiting international students to globalising the curriculum and research. Internationalisation as practice is conceptually reduced to the recruitment of international students or international research partnerships(Lomer et al, 2023).2 Soft power is the ability to obtain preferred outcomes by attraction rather than coercion or payment.

This rapid evidence review focuses on the internationalization of education, particularly in Central Asia and the Eastern Neighbourhood. It examines how education influences development outcomes, emphasising higher education's role in economic growth and human capital enhancement. The review highlights challenges in accessing quality education, especially in higher education, and addresses issues like social inequality and the exclusion of children with disabilities. Strategies for internationalization, including English language instruction, are explored, alongside efforts to counter misinformation. Despite growth in mobility and transnational education, gaps in research persist, particularly regarding the benefits of internationalisation and the effectiveness of education interventions against misinformation.

Analysis of strategic planning practices can offer insight into how universities operate and are structured as organisations, both in terms of where importance is placed and what is elided, and through discursive consideration of how strategy texts legitimate certain ways of thinking and acting and seek to produce consent around managerial decisions. This paper applies a strategy-as-practice approach (Jarzabkowski and Whittington in Journal of Management Inquiry, 17, 282-286, 2008) to explore how the academic workforce in English universities is conceptualised and represented in institutional strategic planning, specifically in the genre of text referred to as a strategic plan or strategy document. Through qualitative content analysis of a sample of eight university strategic plans (following Brandtner et al., in Urban Studies, 54, 1075-1091, 2016; Hellström in Policy Futures in Education,5, 478-490, 2007), we find the academic workforce occupying an uncertain position in the documents, especially in the case of staff with teaching responsibilities, whose position is particularly ambiguous.
