A new report into the benefits of international cultural engagement published this month (22 November) draws on rigorous, independent research conducted by the OU, led by Marie Gillespie, Professor of Sociology, and The Hertie School of Governance in Berlin.
The research uses a bespoke new methodology to illuminate the value and challenges of cultural exchange activities in Ukraine and Egypt but with much wider implications for international relations and diplomacy.
