As educational project covering a broad area of intervention in education and training, the Ensino Lusófona institutions, particularly in Portugal, gather unique national and international research projects by institution or in consortium, and are integrated in an Institute for Research, ILIND - Lusophone Institute for Research and Development.
At present ILIND gathers 13 research centres/units, with teams dedicated to the various ongoing projects. They are committed to international cooperation and the establishment of strategic partnerships.
In 2021 the private HEIs of Ensino Lusófona were the ones that had the highest number of FCT-approved projets and the highest amount of funding granted!
Lusófona Universidade Lisbon is involved in an innovative European project, FILMEU, the main goal of which is to found a top-quality European University focused on the fields of Cinema and Media Arts.
