There has been a heightened awareness and intensified discussion of the ethical issue in global higher education among scholars of international education. There are also strong calls for actions from the governmental, organizational, and institutional perspectives. However, there seems to be little discussion on what frontline international educators can do in this regard. Motivated by Freire's (1970) critical pedagogy, this paper aims to develop an actionable framework for frontline professionals' value-based practice. It hopes to engage the large number of fellow practitioners in higher education internationalization to increase their awareness of the dire world situation of unbalanced development, to reaffirm the values they should uphold in their profession, and to implement actions within their scope of agency to make a change.
