"RECONOCIMIENTO AL IMPACTO ACADEMICO IMPULSADO POR LA INTERNACIONALIZACION"

Estimados colegas:
Mi cliente es una institución educacional chilena que quiere entregar a sus escuelas "un reconocimiento anual donde el componente internacional haya impactado el en mejoramiento académico" (sic).

NO ME ACEPTAN las palabras "award" ni "prize", por eso recurro a ustedes.

¡Muchas gracias por su ayuda!

Acknowledgement


Explanation:
Yo usaría este término aunque me gustaría leer un poco más del texto en sí. Pero si es un reconocimiento que se está dando a una institución o algo que se le está reconociendo a algo, se podría usar esta palabra "acknowledgement".

Example sentence(s):
  • In acknowledgement of his work...
  • I received no acknowledgement from them.
