Abstract

Countries from around the world have developed national approaches to address risks of international academic collaboration. Based on an analysis of nine approaches, we found that engaging the higher education and research community, facilitating support and coordination between the sector and the government, and identifying opportunities for safe collaboration are crucial. This allows for the mitigation of risks while protecting the academic values of autonomy and freedom, which helps to get the community on board.
