The North-South Dialogue group currently concentrates on determining how to establish sustainable research and education partnerships with universities and researchers in Africa.
The purpose of this group is to:
- identify what makes North-South partnerships equal and sustainable;
- exchange best practices in collaboration at project, programmatic and institutional levels;
- inform The Guild’s policy positions in this space.
