BUA visited Guatemala

On November 7-12, 2024 Mr Bogdan Voronovskiy, CEO of BRICS+ Universities Association, visited several cities (San Juan, Sao Paulo, Santa Clara, Antigua) in Guatemala. The aim of his visit was to explore the interest of Guatemalan students to study abroad programs within BRICS+ countries.

Mr Voronovskiy delivered some study abroad seminars and met local students with parents. The attendees demonstrated their interest in getting higher education in countries, which provide educational programs at affordable prices and guarantee a high quality of education, such as Russia. The parents were surprised with the information that students can study in Russian (after taking a 9-month course of Russian language) and pay less for their bachelor program or get a full/partial scholarship if they win the academic olympiad competition.

He also met Mr Hector Morán Vinthe, the governor of the department (region) of Quiché, who expressed his deep interest in exploration of study abroad opportunities for young people from the region. They discussed possible ways of cooperation in terms of high school visits and career counseling events.
