About the Artwork
The artwork featured in this report is by Fulbright Faculty Development
Program alumnus Alberto Torres Cerrato, a Nicaraguan artist and a professor
at the Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas “Rodrigo Peñalba.” During his
Fulbright studies (2006–2008), Torres received a master of fine arts degree
in printmaking from Ohio University.
In 2001 and 2007, he was awarded internships to study Italian muralists
and intaglio printing techniques, respectively, in Fermo, Italy. He received a
bachelor’s degree in the cultural sciences at Universidad Centroamericana (UCA)
in Managua. He has worked as a muralist and has participated in several public
art projects with national and international artist collaboratives.
Currently, he is working on an art research project entitled Los Desaparecidos
and an accompanying series of prints and mixed media projects entitled The
Forgotten City. This series addresses memory as a device to question the site
and non-site specificity of Nicaragua’s capital, Managua. Torres is interested in
social and political iconographies that reflect the recent history of his society
and Managua’s urban spaces.

Letter from the Chair
A
s economic change reshapes the outlook and future
of Latin America and the Caribbean, a shortage of
innovative and highly skilled leaders has become
a bottleneck for future development. This deficit
­creates both a challenge and an opportunity for educational exchanges
to make significant contributions to the economic outlook of the region
through scholarships for advanced degrees and targeted advanced
training programs.
LASPAU’s work managing scholarship programs on behalf of the
Fulbright Program, the Organization of American States, the W.K.
Kellogg Foundation, COLCIENCIAS, the government of El Salvador, the
Ministry of Education of Chile, and other sponsors is having an immediate and lasting effect in strengthening institutions and addressing the
growing need for innovative leaders. New programs that offer tailored
training in advanced teaching methodology, leadership, and science
and technology policy provide added ways to strengthen institutions
and contribute to their ability to advance higher learning, further
addressing the need for talented professionals.
LASPAU-administered programs have benefited 20,000 individuals
since the organization’s founding in 1964. This record is impressive,
yet the need for advanced learning demands a redoubling of these
efforts. In order to meet the challenges of the
years ahead, LASPAU must rely on strong
foundations that will ensure its sustainability
and growth. Following financial challenges
­created by cancellations and delays in programs by major sponsors in 2005 and 2006,
LASPAU returned to sound financial ground
in 2007 and 2008.
A number of new agreements were signed
between 2006 and 2008 to continue LASPAU’s
efforts to benefit the region. The Fulbright
Program and the Institute of International
Education signed agreements with LASPAU
for an additional five-year commitment to provide scholarships for
university faculty from Latin America and the Caribbean to undertake
master’s and Ph.D. programs at U.S. universities. This program, which
began in 1975, has had enormous success in strengthening universities
throughout the region. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation awarded LASPAU
a grant through which 30 leaders of non-governmental organizations
are receiving advanced training. The University of California in San
Diego, the Ministry of Education of Chile, and LASPAU signed an
agreement launching the Science, Technology, and Innovation Program
for the Americas, an effort to provide hands-on experience for Chilean
scientists in technological and scientific innovation. Finally, LASPAU
began three programs with Latin American universities to strengthen
their efforts in effective teaching and learning.
On the financial front, LASPAU finished 2007 with a surplus, and
by early 2008 we were able to complete the turnaround from the challenges faced in 2005 and 2006. We are confident that our continued
efforts to advance higher education will make a strong contribution to
developing the innovative leadership required for social and economic
stability in the region.

Executive Director’s Report
T
he future demands that educational exchange organizations
display agility and effectiveness as they respond to the changing needs of program sponsors. Such organizations must be
able to develop and administer high-quality, cost-effective
initiatives that show a deep understanding of the climate in which
they operate. LASPAU is meeting this challenge, not only through the
programs described in this report, but through the experience, creativity, and dedication of the staff members who implement them.
LASPAU staff members are rewarded by the knowledge that their
work on behalf of program sponsors results in long-term, positive
benefits to grantees and their countries. This leads to extraordinary
commitment to LASPAU and longevity in the organization. Of the current LASPAU staff members listed in this report, over 50% have been
at LASPAU longer than five years, 30% have served LASPAU for over
fifteen years, and nearly 10% have been at LASPAU for over twenty
years. These staff members have excellent, ongoing relationships with
program sponsors and with academic institutions throughout the hemisphere. Their aggregate amount of direct experience in the region is
a valuable knowledge base that permits LASPAU to provide targeted
innovations while ensuring the effectiveness of programs.
In the teaching and learning area of LASPAU’s work, new demands
on universities to meet the challenges of the education marketplace must
be met with updated techniques. LASPAU has addressed this need through
a menu of offerings that include seminars by experts on academic and
administrative leadership, assistance in the strategic development of
highly effective learning environments, and wide-scale pedagogical
training for faculty through an innovative learning system.
In LASPAU’s traditional scholarship environment, Latin American
universities and governments seek advanced training opportunities at
an increased pace to meet new standards for professional and institutional accreditation. To enhance communications with scholarship
grantees and increase internal efficiency, LASPAU has developed a
highly informative and interactive online student portal designed specifically for exchange program participants.
In the area of science and technology, governments and businesses
increasingly turn to universities for the talent and research results that
will help them better compete in the global economy. The Science,
Technology, and Innovation Program for the Americas is a creative
initiative to expand university-industry partnerships in the region by
providing opportunities for researchers in science and technology from
Latin American universities to engage in doctoral and postdoctoral
research and studies in the United States, internships at U.S. corporations, and research collaborations.
LASPAU welcomes the opportunity to put our experience and
creativity to work to serve our program sponsors in new ways. We
look forward to partnering with universities, science and technology
institutes, corporations, foundations, and government agencies as they
strive to meet the evolving challenges that face the region.

he programs developed and administered by LASPAU and
generously sponsored by government agencies, universities,
foundations, multilateral organizations, and corporations
throughout the hemisphere make a significant difference
in the lives of the participants, their home institutions, and their
countries.
Since 1964, over 20,000 accomplished innovators and practitioners from Latin American and Caribbean universities, NGOs, and the
public and private sector have received advanced training through
scholarship programs, research opportunities, workshops, and seminars
developed and implemented by LASPAU. The majority of program
alumni are faculty and administrators at higher education institutions
throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. Others are leaders of
nongovernmental organizations ranging from local outreach services
for at-risk youths to global relief agencies such as Oxfam. Still others
work to increase effectiveness in government ministries and private
industries, benefiting their countries through their enhanced expertise in technology innovation, environmental sustainability, business
development, and other arenas.
Currently, LASPAU works in five primary areas: faculty development, science and technology, capacity building, leadership development, and assessment. On the following pages are brief descriptions
of the programs administered by LASPAU in each of these areas from
2006 to 2008.
FACULT Y DEVELOPMENT
Advanced degree programs that expand the academic knowledge of
university faculty and workshops that enhance their pedagogical skills
have a positive influence on generations of students taught by these
professors. For over forty years, LASPAU has designed and administered scholarship programs for faculty that were funded initially by
the United States Agency for International Development and since
1975 by the Fulbright Academic Exchange Program, sponsored by
the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the United States
Department of State. To foster teaching excellence, LASPAU partners
with universities to develop customized programs that strengthen
6
the pedagogical skills of faculty and create more effective learning
environments for students through its Iniciativa para el Desarrollo de
la Innovación Académica (IDIA).
Fulbright Faculty Development Program for Latin America
and the Caribbean
The Fulbright Faculty Development Program brings approximately
100 educators each year from Latin America and the Caribbean to the
United States for advanced studies in a wide variety of disciplines.
Program partners—most notably the U.S. host universities—supplement
the basic grant by providing tuition assistance and other forms of
complementary funding. To date, over 3,300 faculty members have
obtained advanced degrees or conducted research through the program.
Upon return to their home institutions, Faculty Development Program
alumni have created new courses and graduate departments, enriched
the curricula of existing offerings, and expanded research efforts and
international collaborations. Others have gone on to become university
presidents or education ministers or have founded new higher education institutions in their countries.
Fulbright Partnerships for Faculty Development in Argentina
Every year the Argentine Ministry of Education provides funding
to the Fulbright Commission to support faculty development grants
for professors from Argentina’s public universities. Additionally, the
Pontificia Universidad Católica Argentina partners with the Argentine
Fulbright Commission by contributing financial support for its faculty
members who pursue graduate degrees in the United States.
Fulbright Partnerships for Faculty Development in Chile
In July 2006, the Chilean Ministry of Education and the Chilean
Fulbright Commission signed a formal agreement launching the
five-year Fulbright–MECESUP 2 Program, Educación Terciaria para
la Sociedad del Conocimiento (Higher Education for the Knowledge
Society), which is designed to improve the quality and equity of Chilean
higher education. The program provides scholarships for Chilean university faculty members to undertake graduate study in the United
States. This agreement follows the success of the Fulbright–MECESUP
1 Program, which enabled 22 Chilean faculty members to obtain U.S.
graduate degrees between 2001 and 2006. Both programs are part of a
new generation of World Bank-funded efforts to contribute to global
development by increasing the capacity of universities to educate and
to innovate.
Fulbright Partnerships for Faculty Development in Colombia
The Colombian Fulbright Commission has signed agreements with
Colombian universities to enable faculty members to pursue graduate
degrees in the United States. The universities contribute a substantial portion of the cost of the program. Participating institutions in
2006–2008 included Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Universidad
Autónoma de Bucaramanga, Universidad Autónoma de Occidente,
Universidad de Antioquia, Universidad de Cartagena, Universidad de
los Andes, Universidad del Cauca, Universidad del Norte, Universidad
del Rosario, Universidad del Valle, Universidad Externado de
Colombia, Universidad Nacional de Colombia (Bogotá and Palmira),
Universidad Pedagógica Nacional, Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana
(Bucaramanga), and Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira.
A partnership between the Commission and the Instituto Colom­
biano para el Desarrollo de la Ciencia y Tecnología “Francisco José
de Caldas” (COLCIENCIAS) provides funding, primarily at the doctoral
level, for university faculty and researchers pursuing advanced studies in fields related to science and technology. The partnership was
expanded in 2005 through funding from the Colombian Department
of National Planning.
An agreement between the Commission and Grupo Empresarial
Antioqueño, Antioquia’s premier industrial group, led to the creation
of the Antioquia Faculty Grant Program in 2008. A scholarship is
awarded each year to a professor from a public university in the
Antioquia region to pursue graduate studies in the United States. In
addition to enhancing the capacity of public universities, the program seeks to strengthen existing relationships and create new ones
between the academic and scientific communities of Antioquia and
the United States.
Fulbright Partnerships for Faculty Development in Mexico
Through the Fulbright–García Robles Program, universities in Mexico
contribute to the maintenance stipend for faculty studying in the United
States under the auspices of the Comisión México–Estados Unidos
para el Intercambio Educativo y Cultural (COMEXUS). Participating
universities in 2006–2008 included CETYS Universidad (Mexicali),
Colegio de Postgraduados (Montecillo), Instituto Panamericano de Alta
Dirección de Empresa, Secundaria General Federalizada, Tecnológico
de Monterrey (Monterrey and Querétaro), Universidad Autónoma
de Nuevo León, Universidad de Guadalajara, Universidad de las
Américas (Puebla), Universidad de Sonora, Universidad Panamericana,
Universidad Tecnológica de Chihuahua, and Universidad Tecnológica
de la Mixteca.
A collaboration between COMEXUS and the Programa de
Mejoramiento del Profesorado (PROMEP), the faculty development
program of the Mexican Secretaría de Educación Pública, expanded
the number of Fulbright Faculty Development Program grants available for professors at public universities. Approximately 20 faculty
members participated in this program between 1999 and 2008.
Programa Pro-Excelencia Académica Universidad
de Las Américas–LASPAU
Since 2006, LASPAU has assisted the Universidad de Las Américas
(UDLA) in Chile in its efforts to foster institution-wide teaching
excellence. In December 2007, 100 UDLA professors were trained in
advanced teaching and learning theory and practice. In January 2008,
40 professors from the initial group received further training and
developed strategies to replicate what they had learned among their
colleagues. By November 2008, a total of 800 UDLA faculty members
had been trained and were fostering effective teaching and learning
throughout the institution.

teaching practices. LASPAU will also assist UNAH in the development
of an ongoing faculty performance evaluation system.
Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez Program on Effective Teaching
and Learning
A seminar on effective teaching and learning was held in Cambridge
in July 2008 for faculty of the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez in Chile.
Sessions included presentations by leading authorities on university
teaching excellence and panels composed of directors of the teaching
and learning centers at Harvard University, MIT, Brown University,
and Clark University.
In March 2007,
Enrique Ogliastri, a
professor at the INCAE
Business School and the
Instituto de E­ mpresas,
led a session on the
case method approach
to teaching as a part of
the Programa Séneca
developed for UNITEC
in ­Honduras.
Programa Séneca para la Excelencia Académica
LASPAU has worked with the Universidad Tecnológica Centroamericana
(UNITEC) in Honduras since 2006, training 17 faculty members in effective teaching and learning and supporting their efforts to replicate the
training among their colleagues. By April 2008, a model syllabus for
student-centered learning was in place, nearly all of the 250 UNITEC
faculty members had been trained in effective teaching techniques,
and the university’s culture of excellence had been strengthened.
In December 2008, a program to develop an UNITEC-wide curriculum based on competencies was begun in collaboration with the
CDIO Initiative from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
The Initiative researches and promotes education that provides discipline-specific fundamentals in the context of conceiving, designing,
implementing, and operating real-world systems and products.
Proyecto APRENDER
In February 2008, LASPAU signed an agreement with the Universidad
Nacional Autónoma de Honduras (UNAH) to provide the university’s
3,500 professors with the Teaching and Learning Body of Knowledge
(TALBOK™) self-paced online course on fostering effective teaching
and learning. To further support the initiative, seminars will be held in
Honduras in 2009 to assess and strengthen the professors’ pedagodical

Universidad Antonio Nariño Scholarship Program
In 2006, LASPAU and the Universidad Antonio Nariño (UAN) in
Colombia began a partnership to build research capacity within the
university. This effort responds to the university’s plans to expand
its scientific and technological research ties with local industry. The
program provides annual scholarships for UAN faculty to study at the
Ph.D. level for up to four years.
SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
Advanced training in science and technology fosters innovative solutions to problems that affect every area of society, from health care to
communications to engineering. LASPAU has administered science and
technology programs that benefit Latin America and the Caribbean
for much of its history. Grantees pursuing studies in these fields can
be found in nearly all of the LASPAU-administered scholarship programs listed in this report. In 2006–2008, COLCIENCIAS in Colombia,
FINCyT in Peru, MECESUP in Chile, and CNPq in Brazil sponsored
programs that were specifically designed to expand the scientific and
technological resources of their countries.
Border Ozone Reduction and Air Quality Improvement Program
Funded in 2001 by a grant to LASPAU from InterGen, Inc., a Bostonbased international power generation company, the Border Ozone
Reduction and Air Quality Improvement Program awarded 17 grants
of up to $80,000 each—including 13 that were active from 2006 to
2008—for applied research to examine effective, scientifically based,
and measurable methods to reduce ozone creation and improve air
quality along the border region of Imperial County, California, and
Mexicali, Baja California. Among other projects, the program funded
the first pollen monitoring effort in Mexicali and a study that led to
the emissions inspection of municipal vehicles.
The program also supported a $500,000 comprehensive threedimensional air quality study of the border region conducted by the
Center for Environmental Quality of the Tecnológico de Monterrey in
collaboration with Georgia Tech, Aerodyne Research, and MIT. The
study provides a scien­tific base from which binational environmental
policies can be improved.
Programa Gerentes Innovadores
COLCIENCIAS supports the further growth of an outstanding cadre
of directors and managers from research and technology centers and
from companies that focus on research and technology innovation.
Established in 2006, the Gerentes Innovadores (Innovative Managers)
Program provides opportunities for managers and executives to
strengthen their skills and gain additional training in research and
development, innovation, and knowledge management through internships or short courses abroad.
COLCIENCIAS Science and Technology Program
COLCIENCIAS leads efforts in Colombia to prepare the next generation of researchers and scientists who will form the foundation for the
country’s knowledge-based economic growth. As part of this effort,
LASPAU works with COLCIENCIAS to support the advanced training
of Colombian professors and researchers in the natural sciences, social
sciences, and engineering, who are enrolled primarily in doctoral
degree programs at higher education institutions around the world. The
Science and Technology Program awarded 78 grants in 2008, triple the
number of awards in previous years. LASPAU and COLCIENCIAS have
sought to recruit candidates from less technologically developed areas
of the country to help close the innovation gap that exists between different regions of Colombia. The 2008 cohort represents 33 Colombian
institutions, each of which has provided additional financial support
to its faculty and researchers during their studies.
FINCyT Programa de Ciencia y Tecnología
The FINCyT Programa de Ciencia y Tecnología (Program for Science
and Technology) of Peru awarded 20 scholarships in December 2008
for doctoral studies in areas related to science, technology, and technological innovation. The scholarship recipients are Peruvian scientists,
academics, and other university and research center professionals. They
will begin academic programs in 2009 at universities outside Peru and
are expected to return home at the conclusion of their studies and
contribute to fulfilling the goals set by the Peruvian National Strategic
Plan for Science, Technology, and Innovation for Competitiveness and
Human Development.
Fulbright–CNPq Program
The Fulbright–CNPq Program is a collaborative effort involving
the Brazilian Fulbright Commission and the Conselho Nacional de
Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq), the national council
for scientific and technological development in Brazil. Designed to
support doctoral studies for Brazilian students at universities in the
United States, the program provided funding for eight grantees, who
were placed in academic programs beginning in the fall of 2005. The
grantees will complete their studies by the close of 2009.
Fulbright–OAS Ecology Initiative
Efforts to train environmentalists from Latin America and the
Caribbean through LASPAU-administered programs began in 1992
with the Fulbright Amazon Basin Scholarship Program, which provided
scholarships for graduate study to future environmental leaders from
the Amazon region. Based on the success of this effort, a similar program was created in 1993 for environmentalists from Central America
and the Caribbean. In 2001, LASPAU facilitated an agreement whereby
the Fulbright Program and the Organization of American States (OAS)
joined forces to create the hemisphere-wide Fulbright–OAS Ecology
Initiative, which incorporated the previous programs. The final group
of grantees of the Ecology Initiative completed their programs in
2008.
MECESUP STIPAS Program
In August 2007, LASPAU, the University of California, San Diego
(UCSD), and the Programa de Mejoramiento de la Calidad y la Equidad
de la Educación Superior (MECESUP) of Chile signed an agreement
to establish the Science, Technology, and Innovation Program for the
Americas (STIPAs). The San Diego area has a history of cooperation
between universities and industry to support strategic innovation and

Alliance for the Arts
In the early 1980s, the administration of Parsons School of Design in
New York City entered into an agreement with the Altos de Chavón
Cultural Center Foundation in the Dominican Republic to establish a
unique educational partnership: the Altos de Chavón School of Design
in La Romana, Dominican Republic. Through the partnership, over
200 students who began undergraduate studies at Altos de Chavón
have completed the final two years of their programs at Parsons. The
Alliance for the Arts, an initiative of the Public Affairs Section of
the U.S. Embassy in the Dominican Republic, provided grants to four
Dominican Altos de Chavón students to complete the Bachelor of
Applied Arts program at Parsons from 2004 to 2006.

capacity building in the areas of biotechnology and medical science.
STIPAs will assist the development of the scientific and technological
infrastructure of Chile by providing opportunities for researchers from
Chilean universities to engage in doctoral and postdoctoral research
and training at UCSD, internships at U.S. science and technology
companies, research collaborations, joint meetings and symposia,
and special short-term projects. The goal of the program is for the
participants to use the first-hand experience gained in San Diego to
facilitate similar university–industry collaborations in Chile.
CAPACIT Y BUILDING
LASPAU has a thirty-year history of developing and implementing
targeted programs for local, national, and regional economic sectors, beginning with the USAID Training for Development Program
(1977–1986), which improved the capacity of universities to benefit
the neediest sectors of the population through agricultural extension
programs, health clinics, and similar services. In 2006–2008, LASPAU
administered programs to expand the knowledge and skills of professionals pursuing academic degrees and non-degree training in a range
of areas that will benefit their countries in the years to come.

FANTEL Scholarships for Higher Education
The Ministry of Education of El Salvador developed the FANTEL
program to support university studies for Salvadoran citizens. The
program is managed jointly by the Fundación para la Educación
Integral Salvadoreña (FEDISAL) of El Salvador, which administers
the programs of grantees who study in El Salvador, and by LASPAU,
which administers the programs of grantees who study abroad. Since
the program’s inception in 2001, the grantees administered by LASPAU
have undertaken undergraduate and graduate studies at universities
in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba,
the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Guatemala,
Honduras, Mexico, the Netherlands, Nicaragua, Spain, Switzerland,
the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Fulbright Alumni Workshop: Diversity and Access of
Underrepresented Groups to Education
The Fulbright Seminar on Diversity and Access of Underrepresented
Groups to Higher Education, held in Guatemala in May 2006, provided the 23 participants with a comprehensive understanding of
Guatemala’s approach to access for Mayan populations through lectures, panels, field visits, and discussions with indigenous Guatemalan
students and faculty members. The participants, Fulbright Faculty
Development Program alumni from 14 Latin American countries, had
all played substantive roles in furthering initiatives to provide access
to education for indigenous populations. Several of the participants
were from indigenous backgrounds themselves and taught at institutions where the student body is primarily indigenous. One of the par-
ticipants reported that as a result of the seminar, she was able to use
technology in support of minority access by designing and teaching
an online course for the Universidad Intercultural in Oaxaca, which
serves the local indigenous Mixtec population.
Fulbright Partnerships for Capacity Building in Argentina
From 2001 to 2007, Fundación Antorchas and the Argentine Fulbright
Commission collaborated to support scholarships for music performance studies at Carnegie Mellon University in the United States. A
total of ten musicians completed studies through this program.
Fulbright Partnerships for Capacity Building in Colombia
The Colombian Fulbright Commission and Carbones de Cerrejón—a
mining, exploration, production, and transport company recognized
internationally for its corporate social responsibility programs—have
developed a program to support professionals from the state of La
Guajira, where the company is located, to pursue master’s or doctoral
studies in the United States. Launched in the spring of 2008, the goal
of the program is to improve educational opportunities in the state,
which has a large indigenous population.
In collaboration with the Colombian Ministry of Culture, the
Colombian Fulbright Commission launched the Cultural Studies
Program for Afro-Colombians and Indigenous Populations in February
2008. The program, which is open to Afro-Colombian and indigenous
candidates in any field of study with a cultural component, provides
scholarships to study at the master’s or doctoral level in the United
States. The first group of five grantees was selected in September 2008
and will begin studies in 2009.
The Graduate Program for the Regions, launched in February
2007, is the result of a partnership between the Colombian Fulbright
Commission, the Colombian Ministry of Education, COLCIENCIAS,
the Colombian Department of National Planning, and LASPAU. The
program provides grants to Colombian researchers, academics, and
professionals from outside the capital city of Bogotá, offering the
benefits of study abroad to talented individuals who otherwise might
have difficulty accessing such opportunities. Grants are awarded for
master’s or doctoral study in the United States, with an emphasis on
fields related to scientific or technological innovation.
An agreement between the Colombian Fulbright Commission and
the Grupo Empresarial Antioqueño, a consortium of over 50 leading
Colombian banks and industries, has enabled 51 professionals from the
private-sector companies affiliated with the group to pursue master’s
degrees in the United States since 1999.
Fulbright Partnerships for Capacity Building in the
Dominican Republic
The Fulbright Alliance for Excellence Program, an initiative of the
Public Affairs Section of the U.S. Embassy in the Dominican Republic,
provided grants to young professionals to pursue graduate degrees
in the United States in fields beneficial to the development of the
Dominican Republic. The grants were funded by Dominican corporations and individual donors. Fields of study included engineering,
education, public policy, and business administration. The fundraising
campaign for the program took place from 2000 to 2002 and donations provided funding for 39 grants, including three grants awarded
from residual funds in 2006.

A memorandum of cooperation was signed in January 2008
between the governments of the United States, represented by the
Public Affairs Section of the U.S. Embassy in Santo Domingo, and
the Dominican Republic, represented by the Secretaría de Estado de
Educación Superior, Ciencia, y Tecnología (SEESCyT). Through the
agreement, SEESCyT is providing funding for additional Fulbright
grants to enable Dominicans to pursue master’s degrees in the United
States in fields of study considered priorities for the economic and
social development of the Dominican Republic. Ten grantees received
awards for study beginning in the fall of 2008, and another eleven
received awards for programs that will start in the fall of 2009.
Fulbright Partnerships for Capacity Building in Mexico
The Fulbright–García Robles Regional Competition Program, created
in 2001 by the Comisión México–Estados Unidos para el Intercambio
Educativo y Cultural (COMEXUS), seeks to increase participation in the
Fulbright Program by highly qualified Mexicans from the less developed areas of the country. The program is open to individuals from 27
of Mexico’s 31 states (excluding Mexico City and the states of Jalisco,
Mexico, Nuevo León, and Puebla). Scholarships are awarded for study
at the master’s level at universities in the United States. LASPAU began
collaborating with COMEXUS on this project in 2008.
Fulbright Partnerships for Capacity Building in Peru
In June 2008, the Asociación Antamina and the Peruvian Fulbright
Commission signed an agreement to create a new Fulbright scholarship
program for the northern Peruvian region of Ancash. The agreement
establishes a fund that will provide up to five scholarships per year
for three years to professionals from Ancash, where the Antamina
Mining Company operates. The scholarships will allow the recipients
to pursue master’s degrees in the United States beginning in the fall
of 2009 in the priority fields of study for the program, which include
business, engineering, and the environment. The Asociación Antamina
is a non-profit organization that was created by the Antamina Mining
Company to promote the well-being and social development of the
population of the Ancash region.
Fulbright Partnerships for Capacity Building in Trinidad and Tobago
In 1999, the Public Affairs Section of the U.S. Embassy in Trinidad
and Tobago inaugurated the Fulbright 2000 Program, a partnership
12
between the Fulbright Program and Trinidadian corporations. The
program supports master’s degree studies in the United States for professionals working in priority fields for Trinidad and Tobago, including
actuarial science, construction and civil engineering, development
economics and trade, finance, geosciences, energy law, environmental
planning, hospitality management, petroleum engineering, and urban
planning. Corporate sponsors from 2006 to 2008 included Atlantic
LNG, Bechtel, BP, Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago, Citibank,
Crowne Plaza Trinidad, EOG Resources, Guardian Life, RBTT, Republic
Bank, Sagicor Life Inc., and Tucker Energy.
OAS Scholarship Programs
The Organization of American States (OAS) supports graduate degree
studies for outstanding individuals throughout the Americas and
also offers grants for the final two years of undergraduate studies for
grantees from the English-speaking Caribbean. All of the grants are
designed to fortify the disciplines and institutions most important to
building a strong future in the region. To this end, grantees pursue
studies in fields related to the priority development areas of the OAS:
social development and the creation of productive employment; education; economic diversification and integration, trade liberalization
and market access; scientific development and exchange and transfer
of technology; strengthening of democratic institutions; sustainable
development of tourism; sustainable development and the environment; and culture. Since LASPAU began working with the OAS in
2002, over 1,300 grantees from all countries of the hemisphere have
benefited from the programs.
LEADERSHIP
Nongovernmental organizations and university extension programs
throughout Latin America and the Caribbean work to improve the
economic and social well-being of individuals in their communities.
In 2006–2008, scholarship programs sponsored by the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation and the Colombian Fulbright Commission, among others,
provided advanced training for social leaders whose efforts focus on
alleviating poverty and addressing basic human needs. LASPAU also
develops seminars, workshops, and informative site visits for academic
and administrative leaders of Latin American universities through the
Iniciativa para el Desarrollo de la Innovación Académica.
Afro-Colombian Leadership Training Program
The Afro-Colombian Leadership Training Program, launched in March
2008, is a partnership between the Fulbright Commission in Colombia,
the Colombian Ministry of Education, ICETEX (the Colombian governmental agency that helps provide financial access to higher education),
the United States Agency for International Development, and LASPAU.
The initiative offers scholarships for Afro-Colombians to pursue master’s or doctoral studies in the United States. The awards also include
support for English-language courses, standardized test preparation,
and leadership training in Colombia. The skills and knowledge acquired
by the grantees during their programs is expected to contribute to the
development of their communities and country.
demonstrated the capacity to help strengthen local development processes. The program offers up to 30 grants for graduate study outside
the recipients’ home countries and two intensive leadership seminars
held on the campus of Harvard University. As with the first program,
academic studies and workshops focus on thematic areas critical to
WKKF’s goal of implementing and disseminating models to break the
cycle of poverty in the region. Eighteen grantees were selected in
January 2008 to begin studies in the summer or fall of 2008 or in 2009.
Sixteen of the initial group also participated in the first seminar on
social leadership and multisectoral alliances on the campus of Harvard
University in November 2008. A second round of grantees was selected
in December 2008 to begin studies in 2009 or early 2010.
Forum on Excellence: How to be a Competitive University
in the 21st Century
In October 2007, a one-day conference was held on the campus of
the Universidad de Monterrey (UDEM) in Mexico to enable UDEM
faculty and administrators to discuss student-centered learning and
the use of innovative teaching methods as a means of enhancing the
quality of the university. Internationally known teaching and learning
experts addressed the group through videoconferences, followed by
small-group work that led to the development of proposals aimed at
strengthening UDEM’s competitiveness.
Maestría de Desarrollo Comunitario Sustentable
The Maestría de Desarrollo Comunitario Sustentable (MDCS), a distance-learning master’s degree program in sustainable development,
operated from 2005 to 2007. MDCS provided training for 23 Latin
American and Caribbean community leaders working in rural development and food security. Supported by a grant from the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation, the program was administered by LASPAU in conjunction with the Universidad Nacional of Costa Rica (UNA) and the Red
Latinoamericana y del Caribe de Seguridad Alimentaria y Desarrollo
Sustentable (RedLayc). In addition to the web-based academic program,
the students attended an introductory workshop at UNA and participated in two extended project site visits organized by RedLayc.
Leadership Fellowship Program
In 2001, LASPAU received a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation
(WKKF) to train individuals working in nongovernmental organizations that receive funding from or have an affiliation with WKKF. Over
a five-year period, 34 fellows undertook short-term, master’s, and doctoral degree programs in areas critical to WKKF’s goal of implementing and disseminating models to break the cycle of poverty in Latin
America and the Caribbean. Grantees from Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil,
Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Jamaica,
Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, and Uruguay pursued studies in a variety
of fields, including international public service, public health, youth
and human development, and sustainable development.
In April 2007, the WKKF approved an additional three-year grant to
LASPAU for a second program. The new initiative supports mid-career
leaders from WKKF-supported NGOs and other organizations who have
Programa de Liderazgo
The Programa de Liderazgo for academic and administrative deans
was designed by LASPAU to train leaders of Mexico’s Universidad
Autónoma de Tamaulipas (UAT) in academic leadership, university
management, and the promotion of effective cooperation among the
academic, government, and private sectors. In September 2007, the
Tamaulipas Leadership Gathering was held in Mexico to strengthen
UAT’s ties with the government and private sector in the region. In
December 2007, UAT deans and directors convened in Cambridge for
the weeklong Seminar on University Leadership, which included sessions on innovation in education, organizational leadership, negotiation skills, team-building, and new techniques to improve teaching
and learning.

Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez Academic Visit
A four-day academic visit to New England in October 2007 enabled
academic and administrative leaders of the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez
in Chile to gain deeper insight into current practices in effective teaching and learning. Organized by LASPAU, the event included meetings
with top experts in the field and visits to the teaching and learning
centers at Harvard University, Clark University, Brown University,
Tufts University, and MIT.

For scholarship program sponsors or university administrators, assessment of knowledge and capabilities through standardized testing
serves two valuable purposes. First, it provides a transparent means
of evaluating candidates for grant programs or university admission.
Second, it enables institutions to assess individuals who have already
been accepted into academic programs in order to place them in
courses at the appropriate level.
Prueba de Admisión a Estudios de Postgrado (PAEP)
Since 1994, LASPAU has used the PAEP—a standardized graduate
admissions exam in Spanish—as a part of the grantee selection process
on behalf of program sponsors. LASPAU also offers the PAEP to higher
education institutions as a component of its efforts to strengthen higher
education in Latin America and the Caribbean. The exam measures
academic ability, cognitive skills, and academic performance, providing a tool for evaluating a candidate’s suitability for graduate study
and for determining an appropriate course of study for students who
have already been admitted to graduate programs.
The PAEP was developed in 1992 by the Tecnológico de Monterrey
(the Tec) in Mexico with assistance from the College Board. The Tec
offers the PAEP to Mexican universities, and LASPAU is authorized
to offer it to higher education institutions and scholarship sponsors
outside Mexico. From 2006 to 2008, LASPAU provided the PAEP to
18 program sponsors and Latin American universities who gave the
test to 10,568 graduate program and scholarship applicants.

niversities, research centers, nongovernmental organizations, corporations, and government agencies
around the world have been the mainstay of programs administered by LASPAU since 1964. The list of
participating institutions in this report of activities includes all of the institutions that have hosted or
sponsored program grantees over the past 45 years.
Host universities play a crucial role in assisting grantees to obtain the advanced knowledge and skills they need
to contribute to the development of their home institutions and countries. Host institutions also support exchange
programs through financial contributions such as fellowships or tuition assistance. Many grantees have home institutions that encourage and support exchange activities by offering stipends or other financial assistance to program
participants during their time abroad. Home institutions also provide positions for participants upon their return,
enabling them to share the benefits of their educational experiences with students, colleagues, and constituents.
From 1964 to 2008, nearly 13,300 individuals from 34 countries in the Americas participated in LASPAUadministered academic exchange programs. These grantees were hosted by universities in Argentina, Australia, the
Bahamas, Barbados, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador,
France, Germany, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, the Netherlands, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland,
Trinidad and Tobago, the United Kingdom, the United States, Uruguay, and Venezuela.
