Andrew M’manga and colleagues are seeking international students in the UK to participate in a British Academy Leverhulme-funded project. This research investigates and models the dimensions of contactless transaction literacy, focusing on key principles such as security, privacy, trust, risk awareness, and wellbeing. By conducting focus groups at at least 16 universities across the UK, the study aims to develop approaches that help international students integrate successfully into the UK’s academic and societal environment. Kindly share this with your university networks outside BU. As a token of appreciation, participants will receive a £15 voucher. Click here for more information.
