The doctoral programme ATLANTIC ISLANDS: History, Heritage and Legal and Institutional Framework aims to create a network of collaborations that will allow future doctoral students to be integrated into the programmes and activities of other institutions that act as partners of the programme. This strategy, which covers everything from the research groups that form part of the programme to the departments and individual researchers, will translate, in accordance with the ULPGC Strategic Plan (PEI), into a network of knowledge in which future doctoral students will be integrated, thus facilitating their mobility and participation in workshops, conferences and other events, both national and international.
The basic collaborations include, firstly, the Universities of La Laguna, the Azores and Madeira, with which there is a framework agreement for collaboration, together with the agreement of the Unamuno Network of Universities and now a specific agreement is added with these Universities to propose to the competent educational authorities and subsequently organize, jointly between the participating institutions and with full equality of rights and obligations, the Doctoral Program ATLANTIC ISLANDS. HISTORY, HERITAGE AND INSTITUTIONAL LEGAL FRAMEWORK.
The University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria signed a collaboration agreement with the University of Madeira under the European Union's Interreg 3 Programme (agreement attached), within which the Interreg IIIB.MAC 4.5/C14 ATLÁNTICA project "Sugar and culture in the Atlantic Islands" was developed. It was coordinated by Santiago de Luxán Meléndez from the ULPGC (Programme Proposal Coordinator) and included the participation of the Centro de Estudos de Historia do Atlántico de Madeira, which is also a collaborator in this Programme (document of a collaborating partner in other collaborations is attached), and the University of La Laguna, whose coordinator is also part of this Doctoral Project.
In the Unamuno University Network, the professor of this Program (line 3) Victor Cuesta López is participating in the Network's Scientific and Technological Cooperation Project with code Mac/3/M126, approved by the Mac Transnational Cooperation Program 2007-2013. The Proposal for our program also has a framework collaboration agreement between the University of Cape Verde and the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (document attached) and the commitment of the Higher Institute of Legal and Social Sciences of Cape Verde (document attached in other collaborations).
The University of Las Palmas has also signed a cooperation agreement with the Universitat Jaume I, through which the research group History, Political Cultures and Social Movements and the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, through the G9 History, Economy and Society group coordinated by the Professor of History and Economic Institutions Santiago de Luxán Méndez, establish an environment of collaboration in training activities, scientific research and knowledge transfer within the framework of their respective areas of specialization, by establishing specific agreements for specific projects. This agreement includes scientific collaboration in the doctoral program Atlantic Islands: History, Heritage and Legal and Institutional Framework.
Likewise, agreements have been signed linking this Program with various American Universities, including the University of Guadalajara (Mexico), with which there is a framework agreement (attached). There is a very close collaboration with this last University, which translates into the presence of four Mexican researchers in our program (document attached in other collaborations).
With the University of La Plata (Argentina), our University has a framework agreement for collaboration to promote the mobility of professors and students (the agreement is attached). Within this framework, the letter of collaboration is included (attached).
The Rector of the ULPGC and these centres have signed a collaboration agreement with the Centre for the History of Além Mar (CHAM) of the New University of Lisbon, the University of the Azores and the Interdisciplinary Centre for History, Culture and Societies (CIDEHUS) of the University of Évora on behalf of a research group that is part of this Doctoral Programme and that supports one of the research lines of this Doctorate with one of its projects, with the aim of establishing a permanent Seminar on the History of Tobacco that has been holding regular meetings since 2010 and that will contribute to the participation of the students of this programme in the activities of these centres (agreement attached). The general coordination of this agreement was carried out on the Spanish side by Santiago de Luxán Meléndez, coordinator of this programme.
Particularly noteworthy is the collaboration provided by two figures of recognised national and international prestige who will be part of the Academic Committee of the Doctoral Programme, Professor Rafael Puyol Antolín (Professor of Human Geography at the Complutense University of Madrid, former Rector of said University and Vice-President of the Instituto de Empresa Foundation) and Professor José Antonio Escudero (Professor of History of Law at the UNED, Vice-President of the Royal Academy of Jurisprudence and Legislation, Full Member of the Royal Academy of History and who could constitute an ideal link between the different subjects that make up this interdisciplinary doctoral programme).
Likewise, the ULPGC has signed a framework agreement for collaboration with the UNED, which includes the documents of collaborating partners (listed in Other collaborations). Likewise, a similar relationship links us with the University of Valencia and the Rey Juan Carlos University of Madrid. As for student mobility agreements, the most notable are those signed with various universities in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Uruguay, Chile, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil.
In the section on "Other collaborations", the documents provided indicate the unequivocal willingness of the aforementioned institutions to support the mobility and training of our PhD students, by making available to them their infrastructure, their relationship with national archives, libraries and documentation centres, their programmes, equipment, laboratories and workshops, or the possibility of participating in the national and international scientific meetings they organise (see the list of these institutions in "Other collaborations"):
