Academic freedom is the foundation of research. But international research and collaboration also comes with risks, and universities bear responsibility for protecting individuals, partners, certain third parties and the institution itself from these risks. This session will explore best practices on how universities can balance universal values, ethical principles, research security and good academic practice while engaging in safe international exchange, collaboration and partnerships.
