Policy initiatives on the right to higher education in Argentina

Tracing Good and Emerging Practices on the Right to Higher Education, UNESCO IESALC.

Argentina has provided free public higher education for over 50 years, but access remains inequitable due to geography and socio-economic factors. This case study explores three initiatives: new universities, the NEXOS program linking high school to higher education, and the National Recognition System, analysing their creation, impact, and challenges.
