Sustainable human development

This year’s UIC Barcelona Forum will include an interdisciplinary dialogue on this theme and focus on individuals’ role in this development.  Students and lecturers alike at UIC Barcelona have pledged to contribute new proposals, find new ways to live in a more inclusive world and encourage a holistic approach to individual and societal development.    

What drives us is finding positive answers in times of uncertainty and cooperating to mitigate the dual financial and health crisis to the best of our abilities.  We offer our knowledge and intellectual rigour to society in order to transform the current situation into a great opportunity to make the world a more human place to be.  

Regarding last year’s Forum:

  • We are keeping the “Academic project” category, which has featured consistently since the Forum’s first edition and contributes to intellectual and research-related dialogue and cultivation.  
  • We are launching the category “Social impact projects”, focused on the crisis sparked by COVID-19. We are looking for students and professors that want to find real and creative initiatives that boost human development in an unsettled society and in the present context.
