About ‘CAMINO A FIESA 2020’
The Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata (UNMdP), together with the Secretary of University Policy of the Argentine Republic (SPU), the National University Council of Argentina (CIN) and the Asociación de Universidades Grupo Montevideo (AUGM) are collaborating to organize a week of discussions (9-13 September, 2019) entitled “CAMINO A FIESA 2020”. Involving the university community in Argentina, Latin America as well as strategic European partners, this week is dedicated to debating and planning thematic agenda of the FIESA conference that will take place in Mar del Plata in 2020.
The CAMINOS project, an Erasmus+ Capacity Building Project involving universities and associations in five Latin American countries and in Europe, has decided to organize its final conference in the framework of the “CAMINO A FIESA 2020” week and to extend an invitation to other projects of a similar nature in Latin America. It considered a unique opportunity to gather E+ projects with similar goals in the field of international cooperation and contribute to the agenda of the FIESA conference 2020.
CAMINOS promotes the notion that the only way to generate sustainable results and guarantee adequate impact of E+ projects, both at the institutional and the policy level, is to generate synergies, share experiences and results and join forces where possible. Hence, the CAMINOS project, together with the organizers of the CAMINO A FIESA week, is happy to open its final conference to all E+ project coordinators and partners that wish to participate in the discussions.

It has developed a Guide for management of mobility in Latin America, aimed at linking and enhancing exisiting Latin American bi/multi-lateral student and staff mobility programmes. The project has generated a greater focus on the
