The aim of ALFA III is to undertake all the required steps to carry out projects that foster regional integration, socioeconomic development and social inclusion in the beneficiary countries.

The general objective of the ALFA III is to contribute to the development of Higher Education in LA as a means of stimulating a more balanced and equitable socio-economic development in the region.

The specific objectives of the Programme are:

- To help improve the quality, relevance and accessibility of Higher Education in LA, particularly for the most vulnerable groups;

- To contribute to strengthening the process of regional integration in the area of Higher Education in LA, fostering progress towards the creation of a Common Higher Education Area in the region and promoting its synergies with the EU system.

The overall indicative amount made available under this call for proposals is €27,000,000. The call for proposals comprises two lots which will be developed in parallel. Each lot covers its own priority sectors or topics which will be implemented through the various actions or projects carried out by the selected networks.

Lot 1 - Joint projects: they will be designed to encourage exchanges of experience between the institutions taking part in the action and their implementation in the Latin American member institutions.

Lot 2 - Structural Projects: the main aim of these projects will be to discuss and design mechanisms to promote the modernisation, reform and harmonisation of education systems at regional level in LA.

The actions are to be carried out in the following countries: the 27 EU Member States and the 18 Latin American countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela).
