OBREAL inaugurates its new office for South America on February 19-20 in a hybrid and open event. OBREAL’s office for South America is essential for our organization to continue building bridges between regions to increase and improve interregional cooperation in the Higher Education sector.
We expect more than a hundred attendees, including authorities from the Argentinean government, the European Union’s ambassador to Argentina, and or the director of the EU-LAC Foundation. Representatives of the Association of African Universities, the General Secretariat of the Central American Higher University Council, and the Inter-University Council of East Africa will also attend.
Our new office, based at the Miguelete Campus of the National University of San Martín, in the Province of Buenos Aires in Argentina, has the support of major associations in the Higher Education Sector.
“OBREAL’s new office will strengthen the relationship between India, South America and other parts of the global South”
The rector of UNSAM, Carlos Greco, believes that the office serves as a platform that OBREAL will be able to use to deploy its institutional policy. What’s more, the rector states that “together, we will revolutionize the global university system. Because we are capable of it, because we have good intentions, and because we will work for the good of our institutions.”
