The Higher Education Council held a meeting with an official from the Indo‑German Centre to explore ways of deepening academic ties between higher education institutions in Kerala and Germany.
The discussion focussed on creating joint research programmes, facilitating faculty and student exchanges, and developing mobility schemes that would allow scholars to work across borders.
Both parties acknowledged the potential for mutual benefit, particularly in areas such as science, technology, and cultural studies, and expressed a willingness to draft a formal memorandum of understanding.
Following the meeting, the council will issue a statement outlining next steps and will work on a draft agreement to formalise the collaboration.
