Considering the contributions made by inward student mobility to (global) common goods, participants suggested that, academically, it cultivates human resources, retains high-level talents (serving local society), and improves international cooperation; politically, it accelerated international exchanges, which improves mutual understanding and respect; scientifically, it strengthens international scientific research cooperation; and economically, it can be seen as a potential economic growth point (though China has not yet achieved this result) and may expand the influence of destination countries and cities. The findings of this study reveal that inward student mobility brings benefits to China and contributes to global common goods flowing worldwide, which can also be regarded as a reason for the supporting of national and institutional policies and strategies on international students. ./cache/cord-327502-za6x4reh.txt ./txt/cord-327502-za6x4reh.txt
