- Abstract
Premise– Internationalisation has a number of positive effects on research and higher education.– Today, researchers at higher education institutions (HEIs) in Sweden collaborate to a greater extent with a larger number of countries than earlier.– Collaborations with researchers from countries whose scientific and political systems, culture and laws differ significantly from ours entail other and sometimes greater challenges.– There is an increased need for informed assessments of the contents and consequences of international collaborations before, during and after a project.– This document has been drawn up in collaboration between STINT, Karolinska Institutet, KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Lund University. The background to this work is the growing debate on values and ethical considerations in international collaborations in connection to HEIs in several countries.– The document is intended to serve as support for reflection and as the basis for discussion of strategic decisions on internationalisation. The purpose is to aid researchers, research directors, department heads, and university administration in assessing collaborations and structuring discussions on how the HEI, department or research group should approach international collaboration., QC 20240109
