The San Salvador Declaration compile the first lineaments for the Latin América and the Caribbean and Europe bilateral relation.

Simone Belli, faculty from the School of Mathematical Sciences and Information Technology participated in the Third Academic and Knowledge Summit in Universidad de El Salvador. During the event, the EULAC-Focus project presented its first results, that later resulted in the basic inputs for the San Salvador Declaration, a document that establishes the guidelines for the bilateral relation between Latin América and the Caribbean and Europe, in the fields of Higher Education and Research.

The document was written in the frame of the Latin América and the Caribbean and Europe leaders summit; among its main goals is to deepen and enhance academic mobility, cooperation among institutions and the exchange of experiences and good practices in teaching, research, outreach and management; and to foster bilateral, regional and bi-regional agreements for the recognition of diplomas and curricula.

The next step will start in Argentina this november, where EULAC-Focus will have its 4rd. encounter to work on specific politics based on the San Salvador Declaration. As project partners, Yachay Tech and Senescyt will have a leading role on the establishment of this politics and programs that will benefit Latin América and the Caribbean and Europe’s higher education and research.
