a. The NEP 2020 Implementation Document has been developed in collaboration between O.P. Jindal Global (Institution of Eminence Deemed To Be University) and Association of Indian Universities (AIU) to provide some direction to the practitioners of higher education to implement the NEP 2020.

The State Higher Education Plan (SHEP) for Haryana reflects a vision for a progressive and stronger Haryana, where social and economic transformation through quality education becomes the order of the day. The SHEP for Haryana is an outcome of deliberations, discussions and collaboration through consultation meetings with all the stakeholders committed towards the goal of promoting higher education (HE) in Haryana. IIHEd undertook this extensive and enormous effort of drafting the State Higher Education Plan for Haryana and brought this project to a successful culmination.
a. In response to the five-year (2019-2024) action plan ‘Education Quality Upgradation and Inclusion Programme’ (EQUIP) of the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India (GoI), O.P. Jindal Global (Institution of Eminence Deemed To Be University) constituted an internal task force to discuss and deliberate on the key issues that form the mandate of EQUIP, and its constituent expert groups. This report presents the outcomes of the deliberations of the task force. The report addresses each of the 10 themes introduced under EQUIP and elaborates on existing challenges, proposed reforms, challenges of implementation, and potential outcomes. Key policy recommendations are proposed for each of the themes accounting for the nature of past progress, recently introduced government policies, and cross-cutting characteristics of the Indian higher education system at the national and state levels.
a. It was quite a unique opportunity for O.P. Jindal Global (Institution of Eminence Deemed To Be University) and the International Institute for Higher Education Research & Capacity Building (IIHEd) to host two roundtable conferences on Philanthropy. The first one was held in Delhi, followed by one in Mumbai, which was organised in collaboration with the Indian School of Management and Entrepreneurship (ISME). The themes covered in the two Roundtables, namely, Institutional Building and Social Development (Delhi) and Education and Corporate Social Responsibility (Mumbai) touched on several layers pertinent to the landscape of philanthropy in India. Each of the conferences brought academia, policy experts, industry and “managers of philanthropy” (i.e. people who run foundations) together to discuss the future of corporate philanthropy in India. In these roundtables, they have identified and reflected on some of the challenges in understanding the role, evolution and impact of the philanthropy and addressed the question of how philanthropy has worked or may work in future in India.

a. Private sector participation in higher education is not a new phenomenon. Historically, private institutions have existed in society. The growing importance of private higher education institutions cannot be only attributed to the Ad- hoc expansion of higher education catering to the unmet demand. Of late, there has been a conscious policy push towards expansion and empowerment of the private higher education institutions by the central as well as state governments. Apart from the direct provision of higher education institutions, the private sector can play a major role in providing high quality higher education. This IIHEd draft policy paper attempts to explore the factors for the growing importance of Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in the Higher Education sector, the various ways in which PPP in HE can take place and recommend a sustainable model for PPP in HE for Haryana.
