Introduction

Research on international institutional partnerships in higher education is mostly on more commonly known trends: transfer of policies from ‘North to South’ and of international students from ‘South to North’.  I will discuss the evolving role of transnational higher education (TNHE) as part of wider national development policies, particularly in Global South contexts. By exploring international HE partnerships, the session will outline the evolution of policies to promote, govern, and achieve more ‘equitable’ transnational partnerships.
