First higher education tie-up follows recent peace accord

The Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence in the United Arab Emirates and Israel’s Weizmann Institute of Science have signed a memorandum of understanding which will see the two institutes work together to advance the development and use of artificial intelligence (AI) as a tool for progress, reports IndraStra Global.

The memorandum of understanding, which is the first of its kind to be signed between two higher education institutions from the UAE and Israel, covers a range of opportunities for collaboration, including student and postdoctoral fellows exchange programmes, conferences and seminars, various forms of exchange between researchers, sharing of computing resources and the establishment of a joint virtual institute for AI.

This follows the historic Peace Accord agreement, which establishes full normalisation of relations between the UAE and Israel.
