The second edition of the BIBA Forum is back, with a session on diversity in sustainable development

The BIBA (Building Intergenerational Bridges in Arqus) Forum is an initiative organised within Action Line 2.8, Seniors’ Universities: sharing of best practices and short-term mobility, to build more inclusive societies by widening access and new transitions in higher education institutions.

With this aim, the Forum provides free and open 1,5-hour monthly discussions about the pertinent issues and ideas confronting us, in the world today, from an international and intergenerational point of view. These sessions are addressed to both young and senior students.

The BIBA Forum 2022 will consist on 5 interesting online sessions revolving around diversity, interdisciplinarity and societal challenges. Each session will be devoted to a specific subtopic, such as (but not restricted to) diversity in sustainable development, diversity in cultural heritage, diversity in digital transition, among others.

The first session is scheduled for 21st February, from 12:30 to 14:00 CET, and will be about diversity in sustainable development. The speakers will be Alessio Surian (University of Padua), Agne Lauzadyte (Vilnius University) and Nuria Bernades (University of Granada). The session will be chaired and moderated by Blanca Delgado-Márquez (University of Granada).
