The primary objective in implementing the Erasmus KA131 project was to promote the internationalisation of Universidade NOVA de Lisboa (NOVA), in line with its global expansion strategy, ensuring the continuity of the Erasmus+ programme, which has played a crucial role for NOVA since its inception in 1987. The Erasmus programme serves as a fundamental vehicle for the internationalisation of education, offering students, academics, and other professionals the opportunity to be exposed to different cultural and academic realities in host countries. With the implementation of this project, the aim was to develop collaborations with international partners, both academic and non-academic, with the intention of maximising NOVA's potential in areas such as research, teaching, and social impact. Furthermore, academic networks were identified and integrated, and funding sources were explored to support the development of education, research, and social interaction with an international projection. Through these initiatives, the project also facilitates NOVA graduates' access to international markets, both academic and non-academic, enhancing the value of their degrees on the global stage. Another focus of the project is the development of international skills within the academic community, creating a university environment that provides enriching global experiences. The Erasmus+ project also aims to generate significant academic and technical value, allowing participants not only to acquire specialised knowledge but also to experience and understand distinct educational and cultural practices. This experience is essential for personal and professional enrichment, fostering a broader and more integrated understanding of European and global contexts. At the same time, the implementation of this project has contributed to the promotion and dissemination of the fundamental values of the European Union, such as cooperation, inclusion, and diversity. The intercultural exchanges between participants and the academic community, both locally and internationally, have catalysed an environment of sharing and mutual understanding, strengthening European cohesion and identity. The internationalisation of study programmes is also a central point of this project, with the creation of international master's degrees and the provision of international experiences for students who do not participate in mobility. The mobility of students, faculty, and researchers, whether in long-term programmes or short-term experiences, has become one of the central pillars of NOVA's strategy, offering brief but equally enriching experiences. This mobility allows participants to align their experiences with their academic and professional goals, better preparing them for both the academic environment and the labour market. Considering that the world is increasingly globalised and interconnected, the international experience provided by Erasmus+ is an important competitive advantage, resulting in the development of professionals who are more adaptable, informed, and capable of working in diverse contexts. The continuity of the Erasmus+ programme not only reinforces NOVA's internationalisation strategy but also reaffirms the University's commitment to creating an increasingly inclusive, diverse academic community that is prepared to face the challenges of the 21st century.
