Partnership 2020: Leveraging US-India Cooperation in Higher Education

About Partnership 2020

The Partnership 2020: Leveraging US-India Cooperation in Higher Education to Harness Economic Opportunities and Innovation project goal is to strengthen the strategic partnership between the US and India through collaboration in higher education, research on key issue areas, related economic growth, and people-to-people linkages.

This was a four-year project with most of the activities taking place in 2019, 2020, and 2021. Work products included a searchable database of US-India university partnerships, policy recommendations on enhancing US-India partnerships, practical guide to successful partnerships, and grants to eligible US universities to enhance partnerships with Indian universities.

Partnership 2020 was a collaborative agreement between University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) and US Department of State (DOS) with Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) playing a key advisory role.
