AUCC and the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) have had a longstanding partnership to examine issues of mutual interest. Over the years the two organizations have explored various facets of international research collaboration for development through research, communications and outreach activities.
More recently the partnership has been a vehicle to increase the knowledge base in Canada of the benefits of international research collaboration for development, both for Canadians and our neighbours in the South. It has also been a tool to highlight the contributions of Canadian universities to these partnerships.

AUCC also manages the Canada-Latin America and the Caribbean Research Exchange Grants (LACREG) program which supports small, collaborative research activities in at least one area of IDRC thematic priority among academic researchers from Canada and Latin America and the Caribbean.
In February 2010, AUCC hosted a Leaders' Symposium entitled Cardinal Points:
How North-South Partnerships Support
Internationalization Strategies. This initiative was funded under AUCC’s partnership grant with IDRC. The reading list for symposium participants is available here.
