2023

  • The Reconfiguration of the EU presence in Latin America (EUinLAC)

    (Third Party Funds Single)

    Term: 1. September 2020 – 31. August 2022
    Funding source: Erasmus+
    The Jean Monnet project “The Reconfiguration of the EU presence in Latin America and the Caribbean (EUinLAC)” analyses EU-LAC relations in a challenging and fast-changing global scenario. This includes COVID-19, BREXIT, a new EU Commission and a new US administration, the rise of China and other emerging powers, and the role of Germany. The project responds to three needs:a. to boost teaching on the EU and its values against rising scepticism.b. to raise awareness of the EU actual presence and action in Latin America.c. to strengthen links between European and LAC civil societies, including expat communities.The truly interdisciplinary team will address two crucial aspects of EU-LAC relations: the role and foreign policy of key actors in the EU and LAC with the capacity of driving biregional relations, and topical and innovative issues on the bi-continental agenda for a greener, more inclusive and prosperous future.EUinLAC is a Jean Monnet Research Project awarded to the university of Erlangen-Nuremberg under the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.
