b'ELEVATE UFS INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH PROFILE.Facilitate global research by helping the UF community identify potential research collaborators and mentors already working in the same country or region, promoting grants for international research, and helping navigate the international regulatory landscape. Communicate UF policies and promote best practices and compliance in collaboration with the UF Office of Research to help faculty accomplish scholarly and research goals safely and legally. Train researchers in next-generation international engagement including local capacity building, co-creation of knowledge, and more. STRATEGIES: Engage stakeholders from across campus (Council of Research Associate Deans, Area Studies Directors, etc.) to help identify Strategic Partners. These new international partnerships complement and build upon, rather than replace, existing faculty-faculty agreements. Strategic Partnerships include not just research, but also mobility and virtual exchange programs to facilitate long-lasting, comprehensive engagement. Develop, annually review, and update modules for a new online Best Practices in International Research Badge for faculty, postdocs, and graduate students in collaboration with the Office of Research and Research Integrity, Security, and Compliance (RISC). Fund annual series of seminars around topics proposed by faculty and Area Studies Centers (African, European, Latin American) to discuss current topics related to international research. Seminars are modeled after our successful Helicopter Science/Just Science pilot series. Develop and host an International Research Learning Community in collaboration with the Office of Research, RISC, and the Council of Research Associate Deans, including alumni and mentors of our Global Fellows Program.UF International Center Strategic Plan | 5'
