Abstract

The social and health crisis caused by COVID-19 has made the academic mobility of teachers and researchers difficult. The objective of this qualitative research is to identify what strategies have allowed the academic mobility of teachers and researchers to develop in the post-pandemic era. The main results show that virtuality has allowed maintaining contact networks with other international institutions, but, at the same time, a break with the philosophy of teaching and research mobility has been identified, highlighting that presence is usually more productive for researchers. . Virtual mobility is considered a useful tool for situations caused by the pandemic, however, an absence of access to the resources of foreign institutions has been identified, which confirms the presence of discriminatory situations or inequalities of access with respect to others. colleagues who have made the in-person stay. It is, therefore, necessary to rethink international mobility based on virtual environments and incorporate models that are more conducive to a scenario where the ecology of professional learning gains importance, compared to models that prioritize physical mobility as an economic source and source of internationalization for universities.
