Global Engagement

Tackling Global Challenges and Sustainable Development



The University of Coimbra's vision is to be a globally engaged university, opened to cooperation with partners from diverse parts of the world, which share common education, research and development goals. This is reflected in its comprehensive internationalisation strategy aiming to increase the capacity and the visibility of the contribution of UC to tackle global challenges and make societies socially, environmentally and economically sustainable.

Here we present a series of initiatives, research projects and cooperation and development partnerships, involving the academia, public services, industry and the civil society, which make a meaningful and socially responsible contribution to the world.
