Lessons from differences in university pandemic resilience - Iuna Tsyrulneva and Sulfikar Amir, University World News

From finances to teaching and learning, the COVID-19 pandemic affected different universities in different ways. The NTU Report on Resilient Universities During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Differences between East and West sought to understand the ways universities demonstrated and enhanced their resilience in the face of the pandemic so that we can learn what might help in future disruptions. For the report, Professor Vanessa Evers and Dr Iuna Tsyrulneva from the NTU Institute of Science and Technology for Humanity in Singapore studied local and international media and sourced data from consultancy and advisory agencies, academic publications, press releases and annual reports from selected universities to get an idea of the public dialogue relating to the performance of the academic sector.
