Global Partnerships

Our global partners form a trusted network which enables us to collaborate effectively and extend our reach and impact worldwide. Through these partnerships, we achieve remarkable milestones as a university. Our joint efforts result in research that provides innovative solutions to ensuring social justice, making a meaningful difference in the world.

Throughout the University of Liverpool’s nearly 150-year history, vital relationships have been built with businesses and public organisations both in the Liverpool City Region and internationally. This allows us to pursue global cross-sector partnerships that have a sizeable impact.

We continually seek to expand the scope and impact of our valued partnerships. With a global mindset embedded across the University, our ongoing goal is to foster and support new aspirations for international engagement in the years ahead.
