Higher Education Partnerships for the Future is the first book conceptualised and published by Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University’s (NMMU) Unit for Higher Education Internationalisation in the Developing World. This book brings together leading as well as upcoming global thinkers and practitioners in the field of higher education internationalisation who explore the trends, challenges, potential and prospects of higher education partnerships. The authors were asked to critically look at institutional partnerships and networks in international higher education and explore future opportunities and challenges. The main focus is on the future – what should happen and what could happen in the world of international higher education and specifically in relation to institutional partnerships and networks.
