EDITORIAL NOTES
Dear colleagues,
Coimbra Education School has a long history of highly successful and vital international partnerships. In a few years, we have tripled the number of bilateral agreements with other European universities, and that abundance keeps growing. Likewise, our incoming and outgoing mobility indicators have also increased significantly. Thus, in order to give visibility to some of our partnerships, we are preparing two special issues of our MoveOn Magazine that will be entirely devoted to the brief presentation of a few of the various universities with which we have close relations and, in many cases, with which we have developed personal and scientific links. These are privileged connections that go both ways, and of which we are very proud. The next pages are therefore short expositions of these institutions. With this visibility strategy, we hope to give you the chance of getting to know some of these establishments by highlighting what they have to offer, and also by inviting you to visit their websites and possibly consider them as a destination for future mobilities. We expect that these quick presentations will invite, encourage and motivate you for future Erasmus+ missions. Pedro Balaus Custódio
