Developed in response to the inability of many students to study abroad, Proyecto 5+5 is the result of five Latin American institutions working together towards two main goals: the expansion of their COIL activities and awareness of SDGs. By following a program logic model, and the internationalization cycle proposed by Knight and De Wit (2007) at a minor scale, these institutions worked strategically to create the Proyecto 5+5+ in which five institutions, from five countries and with five professors each, collaborated together to create a COIL project to advance five of the UN SDGs. We will share the phases of the Proyecto 5+5 from the awareness phase until the reinforcement phase, serving as an example of how to develop COIL methodology and SDGs.
