The II Uniservitate Global Symposium was online on 28th and 29th October 2021, due to preventive measures implemented following the Covid-19 pandemic. All the activities were free of charge with simultaneous interpretation in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese.
The Holy Father, Pope Francis, sent a greeting message encouraging the organizers and participants “to continue working to ensure that Catholic educational institutions strengthen their identity and mission, with projects which go forth beyond the purely academic, and educate the heads, hearts and hands of their graduates in solidarity and fraternity”. The Secretary General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres, also sent his greetings.
More than a thousand students, professors, researchers and representatives from 45 countries attended the two-day conference and submitted 116 papers from 57 Higher Education Institutions.
The event was coordinated by CLAYSS and Porticus and organized by Uniservitate and the Catholic University of Portugal, in collaboration with the International Federation of Catholic Universities (IFCU), in adhesion to the Global Compact on Education.
A certificate of participation will be available.
