Stella programme: evolution • In 2008, the Erasmus programme was opened to finance other types of mobilities, including the mobility of administrative staff and Stella was re-designed. • After much discussion, Stella focused on the Intercontinental Staff Mobility, mainly with Peru and Mexico in 2009. • American placements were open for the period: March-December. This mobility received a Stella grant for travel and meals. Accommodation was paid by the host university. . Compostela Group of Universities. XVI General Assembly Eva GareaOya, Universidade de Vigo
Stella programme: evolution • European offers were shown in a permanent notice board on the CGU website but without CGU financing. • Institutions had to address the target unit in Europe directly and use the Erasmus programme funding resources. • Institutions willing to participate had to offer at least one department/service to be visited and accept the decision of the steering committee regarding the match of offers and applications. .
