Abstract

The internationalisation of higher education has been considered one of the dimensions of university mission and quality and is an emerging context in public policy and management processes. In the scientific field of internationalisation, there is a predominance of the global North and a smaller perspective in the global South. This project, therefore, focuses on emerging contexts, making it relevant because Brazil, among other countries in the global South, does not have a consolidated public internationalisation policy for the Higher Education System. With this in mind, the South Brazilian Higher Education Network (RIES), created in 1999, with expertise in the subject and with the recent production of the Brazilian Encyclopedia of Higher Education (EBES), presents the following research problem: What evidence and proposals for the internationalisation of higher education in emerging contexts in the global South contribute to the (re)construction of public policies and university management processes? The general objective is to understand the evidence of the internationalisation of higher education in emerging contexts in the global South, looking for subsidies/indicators for the (re)construction of public policies and university management processes. The methodology is based on comparative studies (national and international) and consists of exploratory (evidence), interpretative (analysis), propositional (prospecting) and scientific socialisation stages. It is expected to contribute subsidies and indicators for the consolidation of public policies and the qualification of university management, with a view to the internationalisation of higher education in the global South.
