Other Workshop on responsible internationalisation
Welcome to a series of activities in autumn 2025 to explore different aspects of responsible internationalisation.
Welcome to a workshop where you will be given the opportunity to reflect on potential risks with international collaboration in a geopolitically turbulent world.
Karolinska Institutet (KI) actively participates in education and research collaborations globally. International cooperation is crucial to KI's activities. It is our shared responsibility to maintain and deepen these collaborations in a responsible manner, managing and minimizing risks, especially in collaborations with partners from authoritarian countries.
Responsible internationalisation is a concept that encompasses strategies for creating favorable conditions for international cooperation and includes the professional responsibility of minimizing and managing risks.
