Gustavo Gregorutti is Professor in the School of Education at Andrews University, USA. His research focuses on faculty research productivity, private higher education in Latin America, and quality issues that impact accreditation. He is presently involved in several research international organizations.
Nanette Svenson is Adjunct Professor of Global Development at Tulane University, USA. She is based in the Republic of Panama and also works as a consultant for the United Nations and other development organizations. Previously, she helped establish the UNDP Regional Centre for Latin America and the Caribbean, heading its research and knowledge management efforts, and taught at local universities in Panama.
This volume examines research productivity within schools in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) and presents examples of various successful LAC North-South programs which have propelled university research in the region. Much of the scholarly work on North-South research to date has concentrated principally on joint publications and co-authorship bibliometrics. In this book, cases are explored within the context of study on international research collaborations to highlight the motivations, mechanics, limitations, and success factors involved in the North-South relationships and their resulting research output.
Examines what motivates collaboration between universities in different countries with distinct socio-cultural and economic development contexts Considers barriers and limitations these universities face in carrying out joint research projectsExplores key factors that appear to have advanced research productivity for these partnerships
