It was at the Third International Meeting of Rectors organized in Rio de Janeiro by Banco Santander. The proposal received immediate support from the bank, which will pay them 40,000; Heads of State and Government and the Organization of American States. As a result, the Latin American Alliance for Academic Mobility is about to come true.
How the Alliance Summit hosted in Veracruz? With great enthusiasm. The session on education talked Michelle Bachelet, Rafael Correa, Enrique Peña Nieto … and they all applauded the Alliance. Did you come to some kind of financial commitment? Thanks to the support we receive from Emilio Botin in Rio de Janeiro, and its commitment to double its mobility grants to Veracruz did not get to ask for money to governments. Many of them may make contributions, but could not fund this program with public money only because the States and have great challenges in basic education. How you will coordinate the program from 40,000 scholarship fund Santander? In the region there are about 15 mobility programs (15 to 20,000 scholarships per year) that are not coordinated or articulated. No need to create new programs that compete with them, but to promote an alliance between existing, establish common reasons, standards, benefit from the agreements already signed, including new countries … These scholarships existed maintain its current name or they will merge into the new one? An example. Although join the alliance, scholarships Santander Universities keep its name, but the program will incorporate a seal and a responsibility. And the conversations we’ve had and we can not announce yet, we are confident that we will attract more private companies to the Alliance. Does it seem dangerous comparison with the European Erasmus? Yes, because it is proven that the Erasmus program has had a very beneficial effect on the integration of young people who have participated in it. They are much more proactive, move more and Erasmus has given them skills that would not have been able to get alone in a classroom. All this gives him mobility, hence our inspiration was the Erasmus program, what happens is that we can not use that name (laughs). Have you thought of a name? No, let’s have a contest to choose it and we will help a specialized company. It will not be easy, because I do not want to put countries fight, and everyone will want his Nobel prize. What are the deadlines to begin to provide new grants from the Alliance? Santander will continue with his schedule. We will have our first selection of fellows to September 2016, before the Summit of Heads of State of Colombia, with the idea of benefiting from the scholarship in 2016-2017 course. Mount this platform it requires dedication, energy and perseverance, so that first year scholarships will grant less than the annual average necessary to add 200,000 in 2020, but the figure will grow to compensate. Erasmus scholarship was instrumental in building a European identity. Could something similar happen in Latin America? Definitely. There is plenty of that already, but there is no awareness of it, and the identity requires recognition of a fact but already a reality. What about the Spanish University of Iberoamerica talk in terms of market? This is part of that, because those who have built the Latin American Area for 500 years have been the people and businesses. Spain opted for Latin America in the 90s, when no one did and today many Latin American companies have chosen the Peninsula. I think it’s great that this is an area of economic construction, cultural, knowledge and people.
