| Summary: | This article describes the process of elaborating a project for submission to the National Programme of Academic Cooperation (PROCAD) of the Commission for the Training of Personnel for Higher Education (Capes). Its aim is to discuss whether the results of inter-institutional policies strengthen peripheral institutions, as its formal objectives state. This discussion encompasses the analysis of the current evaluation policies of both graduate programs and the academic faculty attached to them. These policies seem to replace principles of academic cooperation with competition between colleagues. The text was based on the author’s participation in the Inter-Institutional Seminar on Science and Knowledges in Amazônia (UFPE, Recife, out/2005) and more specifically on the discussions of the round-table on Inter-Institutional Policies for Research and Training.
