The researcher Rosana Peris, co-director of the Master's Degree in Development Cooperation at the Universitat Jaume I, and Carmina Peñarrocha, technician of the Vice-rectorate for Internationalisation and Cooperation, within the framework of the project "Los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) en la Universitat Jaume I: Educación (ODS 4) y Alianzas (ODS 17) para fortalecer la Igualdad de Género (ODS 5) del pueblo adivasi del estado de Goa (India)", have visited India state during the month of November with the aim of expanding the network of entities that collaborate in the external work placements of the master's degree and make known, as UJI ambassadors, the public university of Castelló among the entities of the Third Sector and the University of Goa.

The first contact was with the Jesuits in the state of Goa. A meeting was held with the Provincial of the Goa Jesuits, Roland Coelho, who was accompanied by Simon Fernandes, and other members of the community. The Provincial noted the interest of the UJI in building an interdisciplinary and international network of knowledge. In addition to presenting the Ambassadors programme, we would also like to underline the meeting held between lecturers Rosana Peris and Simon Fernandes, where a work placement agreement with the Master's Degree in Development Cooperation was entered into, and also the intervention of the latter as a speaker at the forthcoming *4th GlobCons Conference*.

Later, the UJI team was received by Mr Varun Sahni, Vice-Chancellor of Goa University, who, at an informal meeting, showed his interest in entering into a general memorandum of understanding with the UJI, which will serve as an umbrella covering future specific actions, such as the MCAD/UJI international work placements, as well as his university's participation in European projects led by the UJI. Specific procedures were discussed with Professor Koshy Tharakan, from the international relations area.

Regarding research, Rosana Peris attended a meeting with Shaila Desouza, Head of the Department of Women’s Studies, and Priyanka Velip, Professor at Government College of Arts, Science and Commerce, Quepem, to discuss their incorporation into the study *Gender relationships in Adivasi communities,* which is being carried out by Rosana Peris, Sonia Agut, Carmina Peñarrocha and Raquel Agost. This incorporation is of the utmost importance, since scholar Priyanka Vilap belongs to the Adivasi tribal community under study.

The closing activity at this university was the lecture *Rescuing the Identity of the Adivasis from their Invisibility. The Encounter between Jesuits and the Indigenous Peoples of India,* delivered by Carmina Peñarrocha. It was organized from the Department of Political Science thanks to the collaboration of the Professor Rahul Tripathi, Head of the Department.

Other meetings at Goa University took place with Professor Peter Ronald Desouza from the Department of Political Science and Professor Vijay M. Gawas, from the Centre for Study of Social Exclusion & Inclusive Policy.

And to close the *N.S.S. Special Camp programme* at Quepem College, in Morpirla, a centre affiliated to the University of Goa and located in a tribal area, Carmina Peñarrocha delivered the lecture *The indigenous peoples of India and their relationship with other identities*.

As part of the activities carried out with third sector organisations, one of those which had a greater impact in terms of its direct relationship with the Adivasi people was the seminar-discussion with the members of the Adivasi Sangatna Quepem NGO for Human Rights.

The UJI team had the opportunity to compare the results of their research with the Adivasi people themselves, who showed great interest in the proposals made by the University.

Furthermore, the group visited Khotigao, in the south of Goa, where the Adivasi tribal community is based, to meet the tribal leader Devidas Gaonkar, President of DEEP India. Here, experiences were shared with local peasants, and the oldest craftsman in the village showed us the work he does with palm and bamboo leaves, which is unfortunately now a dying art.

As tribal leader, Devidas Gaonkar is also delegate in the south of Video Volunteers, an Indian human rights organisation that empowers marginalised people to tell their stories.

The visit to Goa ended with a joint activity with the members of DEEPNETWORK. This international network is a global, culturally diverse and volunteering community of peace activists, scholars and promoters of change. Figure 8 shows the seminar-discussion carried out by Sebastian Rodrigues, Vice-President and Director of DEEP India, and the subsequent visit to Nauxim, a fishing village by the Zuari River.

We would like to underline the involvement of Professor Alberto Gomes, Emeritus Professor at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia, who is a guest lecturer at postgraduate level at the UJI every year. Professor Gomes delegated coordination, management and accompaniment tasks to Sebastian Rodrigues and to Maggie Silveira, President of Bharat Mukti Morcha (political activism association) and executive committee member of DEEP India. A great part of the success of this project is due to their interest and hard work.
