Abstract

This is a comparative study of Internationalization Policies (IP) in two Brazilian public universities: the University of Latin American Integration (UNILA) and the Federal University of ABC (UFABC). The analysis was conducted using Ball's policy cycle. Regarding UNILA, strategies for regional integration based on South-South Cooperation (SSC) were identified. On the other hand, UFABC demonstrated a focus on capital regulation and control to meet the requirements of the global context. Despite their distinct perspectives, both policies indicated strategies for Internationalizing Higher (IH) education in the global south.
