The British Council China continues the Enabling Grants for UK-China Institutional Partnerships through academic collaboration this year. This is designed to enable effective UK-China higher education collaboration, strengthen institutional partnerships and academic collaborations through sharing knowledge and principles of good practice, whilst cooperating on research and capacity building. We intend to help continue academic exchanges and deepen institutional ties, while delivering real benefit to the education sector of the countries involved. 

Funding will be provided to UK universities who have been partnering with China, for selected projects that will strengthen academic collaboration and enhance education internationalisation between the UK and China. Projects can be delivered online, offline or blended. All applications must demonstrate key characteristics of gender equality and inclusion.
