ENQA-SIACES
ANVUR participates in the SIACES-ENQA Working Group, which focuses on aligning the guidelines for higher education quality (PBP) with the Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area (ESG), fostering trust between Europe and Latin America.
Coordinated by ANECA, the group includes agencies such as A3ES, CNA Chile, CNA Colombia, CONEAU, and HCERES.
The objective is to create shared standards to ensure quality and transparency in education systems. The final report, jointly prepared by ENQA and SIACES, will also be used in the official review of the ESG and PBP documents, further strengthening dialogue and collaboration between the two regions.
