Global and international sphere of action
The UOC enjoys a presence in the world through a strategy of alliances with other universities and research institutions from different countries.
These alliances have as objectives:
- Respecting and accepting cultural and linguistic differences.
- To contribute to projecting Catalan culture and the University throughout the world.
The UOC promotes an integrated system of research, information and documentation activities on the use of ICT in education through the UNESCO Chair in E-Learning.
One of the fundamental premises of the Chair is the promotion of equality of opportunities regarding access to new technologies in the knowledge society.
