• Student long-term attitudes
• Assessments

Feel free to join for all or only some of the sessions.

UNISERVITATE is the programme for the promotion of service-learning in Catholic Higher Education.

Its objective is to generate a systemic change in Catholic Higher Education Institutions through the institutionalization of service-learning as a tool to achieve its mission of offering an integral education to the new generations and involving them in an active commitment to the challenges of our time.
