People, Education, and Technology for a Sustainable Future
Today's world, increasingly global and interconnected, faces a series of challenges related to the use of technology, education, the creation and management of knowledge, inequalities, and environmental impact. To approach these challenges and turn them into progressive opportunities, it is necessary that we reflect on pathways to a more advanced, inclusive, and sustainable future—pathways from the university and society through research, education, and debate.
This conference aims to be an open and dynamic, multidisciplinary, and international forum to address these challenges from various standpoints, critically examining the tools of technology and knowledge. The debate at the conference is organized around four major themes, raising fundamental issues of our current society and addressing in a transversal way: 1) Histories of Technology; 2) Knowledge Makers; 3) Social, Cultural, and Intercultural Realities; and 4) Curriculum, Evaluation and Technologies in Education. The conference will be a meeting point and a collaboration framework so that people advance, with the help of knowledge, education, and technology, towards a more productive, fulfilling, and sustainable life.
