World Challenges (areas of cooperation)

1. Develop International cooperation based on solidarity and mutual respect and the promotion of humanistic values and intercultural dialogue.

2. Increase the transfer of knowledge across borders, and work towards finding common solutions to foster brain circulation and alleviate the negative impact of brain drain.

INTERNATIONALIZATION

3. Develop international university networks and partnerships to enhance mutual understanding and a culture of peace;

4. Develop more intense and balanced academic mobility;


7. Promote globalization of higher education to benefit all (for this to happen, it is critical to ensure equity in access and success, to promote quality and respect cultural diversity as well as national sovereignty);

8. establish national accreditation and quality assurance systems along with promotion of networking among them;


9. Increase regional cooperation in aspects such as quality assurance, recognition of diplomas, of credits and studies;

10. Combat 'degree mills' at national and international levels.


Combat degree mills through multi-pronged action at national and international levels;

How are we doing?

Regulatory controls are being put in place, with Strong implications over the evaluation system. A new Institute (INSAES) is being created to assure a better control over institutions that have little appreciation for quality.

Degree Mills are exactly what creates enormous resistence in public universities vis-a-vis diplomas obtained in foreign countries.

At CNE a new resolution is under discussion and SESu is presently working on a platform to rationalize the recognition of foreign degrees.

DEGREE MILLS

Support the fuller integration of ICTs and promote ODL to meet increasing demands for higher education..

How are we doing?

The growth of distance education has been exponential in Brazil during the last ten years.

The creation of the Brazilian Open University (UAB), as a consortium of public universitiers, is also a form of democratization of access to higher education with good quality. Today higher education representes about 16% of all higher education enrolments.

SIX DIMENSONS OF THE PDU

Concept 1 - International Partnerships

Description: Lasting partnerships with academic

peers from other countries that result in an

insertion of the research groups of the institution in

the world system of knowledge generation.

INTERNATIONALIZATION – PDU - 1

Concept 2 - International Environment

Description: International environment in the

institution's campus, with regard both to the acceptance

of foreigners and to the presence of a significant

international component in the academic training of the

native community.


Number of articles indexed in the Web of Science, Scopus or in magazines classified as QualisA that record, the affiliations of the authors, at least one author affiliated to the institution and at least one author affiliated to a foreign institution.
