At IHS, we are committed to reimagining our role in collaboration with academic institutions, government entities, the private sector, and civil society. We will focus on enhancing our position within a rapidly evolving global network of experts and practitioners.
“IHS will redefine its positioning through partnerships that prioritise inclusivity, cross-sector collaboration and decolonisation for sustainable urban development.”
In the face of changing policies and regulations, we must deploy adaptive strategies and collaborate across various sectors. These dynamics create both challenges and opportunities for our work, requiring a robust partnership strategy. We will actively foster collaborations that bridge different sectors and perhaps even divergent perspectives, so that we can collectively work together toward sustainable, resilient, and inclusive urban development outcomes.
IHS has long been a catalyst for collective impact through meaningful partnerships with diverse stakeholders. At the same time, we acknowledge our position as a Northern-based institute and will continue to strengthen our efforts toward adopting a decolonial approach and addressing systemic inequities globally.
We are dedicated to reflecting on our role in both current and future collaborations, ensuring that we create opportunities for our partners in LMICs and across the globe to take on leadership within their contexts and beyond.
