between upper secondary education and
higher education in Mexico, France and other
countries. 2. It marks also the beginning of
the creation of a network of researchers in
education policy between Mexico and France.
3. Provide the opportunity for researchers to
present their work and their contributions
to the field even if they are not related to the
transition from high school to higher education.
