Understanding partnership dynamics from a global South perspective: Reflections through engagements in South Africa
Africa, Global
As researchers and practitioners engaged in North-South partnerships, we welcome opportunities that allow us to dialogue with colleagues to deepen our understanding of the dynamics of building responsible partnerships. We acknowledge that we often bring our own agendas (personal, institutional, cultural), biases, expectations, and even unconscious oversights into partnership building processes and discussions, which can undermine efforts to establish partnerships that are truly responsible. Dialogue with other partnership stakeholders can shed light on these issues and put them into perspective.
GINTL lessons learnt: stakeholders invited to contribute to finalisation
Africa, China, India, Global
In November 2024, we will publish the "GINTL Lessons Learnt," a series of concise documents aimed at informing future internationalisation efforts within Finnish higher education institutions, particularly in educational sciences and related fields. In this update, we summarise the input received during the GINTL Dialogue held in June 2024 and outline the upcoming schedule. We appreciate the valuable insights many stakeholders have already provided and encourage you to continue contributing, either during the ongoing drafting process or when the final drafts are circulated for review in October. Your continued input will help ensure that these lessons are comprehensive and reflective of our shared experiences.
