International consortia & networks

International University consortia and networks facilitate the development and expansion of academic cooperation between their member institutions, and also serve to link universities with stakeholders in wider society.

Regional networks serve to bring focus to the University’s international engagement, and facilitate its contribution to addressing diverse global issues.
