Expected Results

The impact on education is high with an average of 500 undergraduate students per year, 5 Master Thesis/year and 4 PhD Thesis per year. The Chair has coordinated 16 research projects during last 5 years, with a total budget of 6,4 million US$ (including income to all partners), and a total income to the Chair of 3,1 million US$, with a 34% coming from public funds from Latin American countries (e.g. Colombia, Brazil and Mexico), 32% from public EU funds and 23% from Local Municipalities in Catalonia.

​

On the other hand, 14 transformation projects had been coordinated during last 5 years, with a total 6,3 million US$ budget with all our partners, and a total income of 2,7 million US$, with 40% coming from public funds from Latin American countries (Colombia, Peru, Brazil and Mexico), 33% from public EU funds and 27% from Local Municipalities in Catalonia.

​

Most activities have benefited from our extensive international mobility (a total of 34 students during the last 6 years), including personnel at different levels and profiles, thanks to the large number of networks (7) directly created.
