We aspire to be a platform for inter-institutional connection and a global reference in the articulation of strategic projects that foster learning, promote transformative projects, generating comprehensive, equitable and lasting changes, inspiring new generations to work for a legacy of unity, progress and collaboration between Canada, Latin America, and the rest of the world.
