ACCESS: Be part of the Forum in Gothenburg 2027

Academic Collaboration Chile Sweden (ACCESS) is a network consisting of Swedish and Chilean universities. The platform’s goal is to promote increased research collaboration between Sweden and Chile. The target group includes both researchers who are curious about initiating new collaborations with Chile and researchers who already have experience from previous or ongoing collaborations with Chile. Special initiatives are also directed toward doctoral students.

The past Forum in Concepción, Chile

Between 12 and 16 January 2026, the seventh ACCESS Forum was held in Concepción, Chile. ACCESS Forum 2026 was structured around 13 research themes, each with its own agenda throughout the event. Every theme was co-led by a Swedish and a Chilean researcher, who were also responsible for selecting the participants.

Uppsala University was represented by a delegation of 21 people. The participating researchers came from all scientific domains: 6 from Humanities and Social Sciences, 5 from Medicine and Pharmacy, 7 from Science and Technology, and 3 members from the university management.
