Cooperation projects at the university
The Solidarity Fund supports university cooperation and Global Justice education projects promoted by the UAB university community.
If you are a postgraduate, master’s or doctoral student, or a member of the teaching, research or administrative staff at the university, you can propose initiatives aimed at reducing structural inequalities, defending human rights and generating social impact both locally and globally.
Check the current calls, deadlines and requirements to submit your proposal and transform university knowledge into Global Justice.

We promote the perspective of the “Global Justice” paradigm. Our focus is on university cooperation aimed at transforming the causes of global inequalities and addressing the historical responsibility of countries in the Global North regarding:
-
the legacies of colonialism and coloniality;
-
the exploitation of natural resources;
-
global economic agreements;
-
human rights violations;
-
structural inequalities that generate impoverishment.
The resources come from the UAB’s commitment to social transformation, inspired by the 0.7% movement, and from support provided by the university community, especially through the Solidarity Contribution initiative.
We are looking for initiatives with real impact that align with the principles of Global Justice and the FAS cooperation lines, such as:
-
cooperation projects with universities and organisations in the Global South that strengthen academic and institutional capacities;
-
Global Justice education actions that bring a critical and transformative perspective to the UAB community;
-
research proposals with social impact that connect social intervention and knowledge transfer to reduce inequalities locally and globally.
- You promote initiatives with transformative potential
- You help connect teaching, research and social impact
- You collaborate with organisations and communities around the world
- You help build a university committed to human rights and Global Justice
