Manipur University of Culture

Manipur University of Culture actively seeks to establish international partnerships to enhance cultural exchange and academic collaboration. The university has been working towards establishing memoranda of understanding with cultural institutions and universities across Southeast Asia, particularly with institutions in Myanmar, Thailand, and other ASEAN countries that share cultural affinities with the Northeastern region of India. The university participates in cultural exchange programmes facilitated by the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR) and the Ministry of Culture, Government of India. These collaborations focus on student exchange programmes, faculty exchange initiatives, joint research projects in ethnomusicology and cultural anthropology, and collaborative performances and exhibitions. The institution has hosted international artists and scholars for workshops, masterclasses, and seminars, enriching the learning experience of its students. Partnerships with organizations such as UNESCO's Asia-Pacific Regional Bureau for Education and the International Theatre Institute have enabled students and faculty to participate in international cultural festivals and academic conferences, providing exposure to global best practices in cultural education and preservation.
