In Argentina, the British Council has five years of experience collaborating with our European partners in education promotion. Through this relationship, we have been able to boost our reach and exposure by combining our experience and contacts. EuroPosgrados 2006 is co-organised by the British Council, DAAD, EduFrance and the Delegation of the European Commission to Argentina. As well as the promotion / recruitment fair, we are organising a number of parallel conferences and seminars where EU and Argentine education policies will be discussed and cooperation possibilities explored. We are working on this with the Ministry of Education and Brussels, which should raise the profile of the whole event and hopefully attract more people to the fair.
