Higher education collaboration
Barnet Council is exploring higher education collaboration opportunities with institutions in Haifa, Israel, as part of a potential twinning relationship.
Barnet Council decided in October 2026 to explore a twinning relationship with the Israeli city of Haifa. As part of this initiative, the council will investigate opportunities for collaboration between higher education institutions in Barnet and Haifa, aiming to establish professional, academic, and institutional links. This exploration also covers cooperation in healthcare and interfaith best practices.
Higher education collaboration involves partnerships between universities and other institutions for joint research, academic exchange, and program development. Barnet Council's current focus is on identifying specific opportunities within this framework as part of its proposed twinning with Haifa.
