UM Dialogues: Knowledge, Safety and Collaboration

How should universities assess their moral responsibilities when considering collaboration with partners operating within or linked to regimes associated with human rights or environmental concerns? How do you deal with partners from countries where academic freedom is restricted? How do you weigh open knowledge sharing against the risks of misuse? Will geopolitical developments put further pressure on academic freedom and how do we prepare for that? How do you respond when funding becomes dependent on political conditions?
