Eight Ibero-American countries signed an agreement to facilitate the mobility between their territories of researchers, businessmen, entrepreneurs and internship students in order to promote the exchange of knowledge and scientific and intellectual creation, within the framework of the Ibero-American summit in Andorra.

The foreign ministers of the signatories (Spain, Portugal, the Dominican Republic, Brazil, Colombia, Nicaragua, Panama and Guatemala), endorsed the text shortly before the start of the XXVII Ibero-American Summit in Andorra.

"The circulation of talent within the Ibero-American space will favor the transfer of knowledge, scientific and intellectual creation and innovation," they said.

On the other hand, at the summit, the countries of Latin America and the Iberian Peninsula rejected the 'hoarding' of vaccines. The final declaration, agreed by the 22 countries of the bloc, requested "that access, purchase and distribution of vaccines (...) be universal" and that "hoarding" of vaccines be avoided.
