Resposta esperada

English proficiency influences agenda-setting because scholars fluent in English more easily publish in high-impact journals, present at major conferences, and access global funding networks; this concentrates visibility and authority in Anglophone or English-proficient countries. To shift influence, universities in non-Anglophone regions should implement a targeted ‘English-for-research’ program that combines: (1) intensive disciplinary English training for faculty and graduate students focused on academic writing and oral presentation, (2) dedicated internal grants for publishing open-access papers in English while requiring multilingual summaries, and (3) strategic research partnerships with established labs abroad that include co-authorship and joint leadership roles. Such a program raises the quality and visibility of local research, builds networks that lead to shared agenda-setting, and preserves regional priorities by mandating bilingual dissemination. Over time, these measures help non-Anglophone institutions contribute to—and shape—the global research agenda rather than only adapting to it.

Explicação

A resposta aborda a relação entre a proficiência em inglês e a capacidade de países influenciar prioridades científicas, destacando como a fluência facilita a publicação e o acesso a redes de financiamento. Além disso, propõe uma estratégia prática e estruturada que pode ser implementada por universidades em países não anglófonos, visando aumentar sua visibilidade e influência na pesquisa global. A combinação de treinamento em inglês, incentivos para publicações e parcerias estratégicas é uma abordagem abrangente que pode realmente transformar a dinâmica de pesquisa nessas regiões.
