Camaguey, Apr 26th. - As part of its academic cooperation program in Cuba, the French Embassy sponsored an Open Science Workshop, from the Faculty of Informatics of the University (UC) Ignacio Agramonte Loynaz, to strengthen internationalization.
The project, within the framework of the FSPI CUBA-IES initiative, promotes the exchange between Cuban specialists and the French researcher Marie-Emilia Herbet, of the Jean Moulin Lyon 3, who gave the working sessions held from Tuesday until Thursday.
This space allowed dialogue between representatives of various Cuban universities on the challenges and opportunities of open science in the current context, Basanta explained, highlighting the strategic value of international collaboration.
As a relevant moment of the program, the official launch of the Observatory for the Internationalization of Higher Education in Cuba was carried out, with the presence of Reynaldo Velázquez, vice minister of the MES; María Victoria Villavicencio, director of International Relations of the MES; and the French diplomatic representation headed by Philippe Benassi and Olivier Giron.
The participation of the UC in this initiative reinforces its global projection, aligned with the institutional development objectives that prioritize scientific and technological cooperation with prestigious foreign entities.
