Report on regional trends and patterns of SSH co-operation between LAC and EU

public

This report is based on the results of a questionnaire survey and a series of interviews of Latin American scientists as part of the EULAKS project funded by the European Union1. It primarily seeks to better understand what are, at the level of the individual researchers in Latin American and  Caribbean  countries  (LAC)  and  the  EU  countries,  the  main determining  factors  initiating, promoting  and  enhancing  international  collaboration  in  S&T  and  the  extent  to  which  the internationalisation of their activities contribute to increased knowledge transfer and production in their respective countries. A web based questionnaire survey was sent to 14445 scientists and answered  by  more  than  30%  of  them  (4425).  In  addition,  77  interviews  of  Latin  American scientists in the broad field of biology were conducted in five countries  (Argentina, Costa Rica, Mexico and Uruguay) in order to better understand the drivers of international collaboration in
their respective life and professional careers.
