CLACSO and the Coimbra Group of Universities announced today that they have agreed on forming an inter-institutional cooperation to develop and promote research, education and innovation as well as activities oriented to shared and collaborative publications. These joint actions will benefit the academic community, citizens and the society at large, particularly bridging scholarly collaboration between nations and countries in Latin America, the Caribbean and in Europe.

This new partnership brings together two crucial, solid academic actors from both continents and serves to underscore the important strategic and political relationships between scholars, cultures, the public, and societies on both sides of the Atlantic.
