SOUZA, JULIANA DE FÁTIMA; VIEIRA, LÍVIA MARIA FRAGA  e  TORO, LUÍSA FERNANDA MEJÍA. OUR NORTH IS THE SOUTH: A CASE STUDY ON THE LATIN AMERICAN DOCTORATE IN EDUCATION AT UFMG. Educ. rev. [online]. 2019, vol.35, e219688.  Epub 25-Jul-2019. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-4698219688.

International cooperation is a strategic component for the constitution and consolidation of stricto sensu excellence postgraduate programs. In the strengthening of the Brazilian Postgraduate System, academic relations with the global North have been valued, where most of the world-class universities are concentrated. This article presents an experience that distances itself from this model, focusing on South-South cooperation and the meanings of regional cooperation to overcome specific problems of Latin America and the Caribbean. The subject of this work is the Latin American Doctorate in Education (DLA) at UFMG/Brazil, which was developed in partnership with Unesco and universities in Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Honduras, Mexico, Peru and Venezuela. The analysis includes documents of the program and questionnaires answered by graduates. It was concluded that the DLA is an alternative internationalization project, with more autonomy and self-centered, oriented by a social justice conception and solidarity among countries of the region.
