This Manual is a first methodological attempt to measure the intensity and description of the characteristics of the internationalization of science and technology in Ibero-American countries, both at the national level and at the institutions and organizations that carry out research and technological development (R&D).
The Manual is part of the projects of the Ibero-American Network of Science and Technology Indicators (RICYT) of the CYTED Program to expand the system of R&D indicators in strategic areas of scientific and technological development in Ibero-American countries.
