The unit of analysis is the International Relations Office of the UAA. The methodology observes a qualitative approach, of descriptive type and analysis of documents, conciliating in a case study. The conclusions refer to an external microenvironment that proposes, as an example, the PONCHO project that, in addition to strengthening ties with European HEIs, strengthens cooperation ties between Latin American HEIs in this case: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay. It also refers to an internal microenvironment that shows us that the implemented actions are relevant and constitute a specific opportunity to promote internationalization in the UAA, improving opportunely the capacities in the technical, academic and institutional levels. 1Universidad Autónoma de Asunción, Paraguay 2Universidad de las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
