The stay can last between 4 days and 1 month at each institution, and can be spread over different academic semesters. The visits will take place during the autumn semester of 2024/2025, throughout the academic year 2025/2026, or in the spring semester of 2026/2027. The costs of travelling, accommodation and meals will be funded by the UA and Católica.
