S04E04: Lessons from around the world

Accommodation Matters brings sector experts together to discuss the Higher Education sector’s key issues through the lens of student accommodation.

This month, we’re going around the world to hear about what student accommodation looks like across different markets. Discussion points include the differences between student accommodation provision in the UK, United States and Australia, how each market caters to significant international student numbers, and the preferences of domestic students.

Host Jenny Shaw is joined by an expert international sector panel made up of:

• Marion Bayley, Chief Executive Officer at Deakin Residential Services and President of the Asia-Pacific Student Accommodation Association (APSAA)
• Tim Daplyn, Director of Strategy and Partnerships at Global Student Living
• Emelie Helsen, Campus Manager at Coventry University London
• Pin Yiong, Intrapreneur at Unite Students

Accommodation Matters was recorded on 23rd May 2022 and produced by Ed Palmer.
