Since 1993, the Fundació Autònoma Solidària (FAS) has managed the UAB Solidarity Fund, an instrument that, thanks to contributions from the university institution, students, teaching and research staff, and admin and service staff, is used to subsidise and support projects on cooperation and education with an eye to global justice by members of this university.

40th Call by the UAB Solidarity Fund

This call is intended to promote initiatives that help to understand and transform the causes and effects of global problems from the UAB.

There are two lines to be followed in this call: the call for International Cooperation for Global Justice, where projects must involve inter-university cooperation in relation to the improvement of teaching quality, the creation of research capacities and/or improvement of university management of counterparties; and the call for Education for Global Justice, which must be done at the UAB and must raise awareness and provide tools for public participation with the aim of fostering a university community that is politically active and socially committed to the construction of a fairer world.

Next Friday 27 January, via Teams at 1.00 pm, there will be an informative session that can be joined via this link.

The deadline for submissions is 30 March 2023, at 3.00 pm.
