Introduction
As the leader of the Italian Interuniversity Consortium for Argentina (CUIA), UNICAM already facilitates international cooperation across Argentine universities. Prior collaboration among CUIA-Conicet (Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas) have aid the groundwork for integrated skill development and infrastructure creation, including incubators and clusters. In this context, as a complementary tool, the E+ KA171 focuses on strenghenining ties with key institutions like the University of Buenos Aires (UBA), UNiversidad Nacional del Litoral (UNL), Universidad Nacional de Salta (UNSa), already funded with the E+ KA171/22 project, and Universidad de Concepción del Uruguay (UCU).
UBA School of Law is one of the most prestigious and influential in Argentina and Latin America. UNICAM and UBA partnership focuses on consolidating a framework agreement with the UNICAM SL and a joint Postgraduate Course in Contemporary Studies of the Americas and Europe (http://americaeuropa.sociales.uba.ar/), in collaboration with University La Sapienza, Rome.
UNL comprises 10 faculties, 2 university centers, a branch campus, the School of Music and 14 UNL-CONICET Joint Research Institutes. These academic units have different programs in the fields of humanities, science, technology, and culture, which are closely related to the problems and the reality of the region the university is based in. The UNICAM-UNL partnership explores 2 main areas: Law and Architecture.
UNSa was founded in 1972 and it has become one of the leading universities in northern Argentina. UNSa offers a wide range of programs in all 3 cycles of study. The cooperation is with the Faculty of Natural Sciences. Former projects funded by CUIA (2011-12) and the Italian minister for foreign affairs (2014-15), related to sustainable uses of the geothermal resources in the Salta and Jujuy areas in Argentina, gave satisfactory results both in terms of research products and the growth of students and young researchers. The aim of the current project is to continue the path started and also fostered with the E+ KA171/22, which is mainly oriented to research and education on green energy, sustainability and water resources.
UCU is characterized by a wide academic offer, including joint degree programs. It is recognized for its commitment to academic excellence, social responsibility, and community engagement and as one of the leading universities in the Entre Ríos region. The collaboration with UCU represents a new opportunity for UNICAM students enrolled in Biology programs (both I and II cycle).The proposal aims at consolidating the collaboration between UCU and UNICAM, undertaken with a MoU signed by the Rectors of both Universities.

- Incoming Staff mobility for Teaching and Treaning
Prof. Elisa Paula Martina Talamo, from Universidad Concepción del Uruguay→ University of Camerino
- Incoming Staff mobility for Training
Vice-Rector Hassen Alejandra Andrea, from Universidad Concepción del Uruguay → University of Camerino
During their five-day mobility at the University of Camerino, Prof. Talamo and Vice-Rector Hassen engaged in teaching activities, institutional meetings and academic exchanges aimed at strengthening cooperation between UCU and UNICAM. Prof. Talamo shared her research experience and presented UCU's practical activities in hospitals and healthcare centres, focusing on intergenerational nutritional interventions and their positive impact on older adults. Vice-Rector Hassen provided an overview of the Argentine higher education system and UCU's internationalization strategy, highlighting the role of international partnerships and academic networks in expanding educational and research opportunities. The mobility also provided an opportunity to explore future collaborations, including double degree programmes, student and staff exchanges, and joint research projects in Nutrition and Biological Sciences, with particular attention to improving quality of life through nutritional interventions.
Both institutions expressed their interest in further strengthening their partnership and developing new opportunities for academic and scientific cooperation.
