    About the 
    Tripartite Partnership Fund
     

    Administered by ENZ, the Tripartite Partnership Fund aims to deepen institutional relationships and strengthen academic collaboration. While the Fund is not designed to fully resource research activity, it supports the development of partnerships that can create wider education benefits. Proposals that outline how the research collaboration may facilitate future student exchange, joint teaching activity, or other forms of academic mobility are especially encouraged. 

    Established in 2005, the Tripartite Partnership has enabled enduring academic connections and a growing portfolio of collaborative projects.
