Engagement
To maximize the impact of these collaborations, LUMC maintains a select number of long-term strategic partnerships with institutions outside Europe. These partnerships are recognized as LUMC Global Partners and are based on shared ambitions, complementary strengths, and a commitment to sustainable collaboration across multiple areas, including research, education, innovation, and societal impact.
Within Europe, LUMC strengthens its international engagement through its participation in prominent university networks, including LERU (League of European Research Universities), Eurolife, and UNA Europa. These networks bring together leading European universities and medical centers to promote collaboration, knowledge sharing, and innovation in research and education.

These visits provide opportunities to share expertise, explore areas of mutual interest, and build long-term relationships with partner organizations around the world.
For visiting delegations, LUMC offers guidance in developing tailored programmes that align with the objectives of both institutions. This may include meetings with experts, site visits, presentations, and discussions focused on research, education, healthcare delivery, innovation, and strategic collaboration.
Requests for delegation visits are assessed in light of LUMC's strategic priorities, the objectives of the proposed visit, and the level of institutional engagement required. Depending on the nature and scope of the request, visits may be coordinated centrally by LUMC Global or organized directly by individual departments or institutes. This approach ensures that institutional resources are used effectively while maintaining flexibility for discipline-specific collaborations.
By facilitating international exchanges and institutional visits, LUMC aims to strengthen its global network, encourage cross-border collaboration, and contribute to addressing shared health challenges through partnership and knowledge sharing.
