Dr Nick Chisholm, Director of the CGD, and Dr Darius Whelan,  Senior Lecturer, UCC School of Law, are visiting the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) in Mumbai as part of a HEA-funded mobility grant to develop a strategic partnership in student and staff mobility and research between UCC and TISS. The two institutions signed an MoU  in 2015 to promote collaboration. As part of the on-going relationship three UCC undergraduate students from the BSc International Development and Food Policy have recently started placements with Mumbai-based NGOs addressing issues of social exclusion and inequality. The students will be based at the TISS campus for a period of about 4 months.
