The link in the headline is to La Universidad Andina Símon Bolívar, a Bolivian university with programmes that deal with infrastucture, distance learning and telecommunication. The page is not in english, but on the page is found contact-information to the university. Could be a good partner for abroad university contacts. Several universities in Finland have programmes in the same area. Good places to start looking for contacts in Finland in the field of telecommunication and education are Virtual Finland and e-Finland. At the west coast of Finland there are several universities and research departments concerned with telecommunication. This one is specialized in wireless techniques: University of Oulu. Here is a programme at Vaasa university. And one at the University of Turku, and a programme in Raahe. A full list of Bolivian universities can be found here. Unfortunately so far, no one of the mentioned tele-com units or universities of the West Coast have noticed Latin America as a continent for partnership.
