The Universitat Jaume I (UJI) and the Glasgow Caledonian University (GCU) highlight gender equality as one of the priorities for building the strategy for the common good of public universities. The rector Eva Alcón, together with Julie Adair and Lindsey Carey, from the Scottish university, inaugurated this morning in Menador Cultural Space the international conference "From ideas: Out of the Box for the Common Good".

Rector Eva Alcón stated that the UJI and, in general, public universities have "the moral obligation to educate young people with values that generate public good in order to cultivate a citizenship with a critical spirit in the face of political populism or media manipulation in the global environment". In fact, "the democratization of knowledge is the best and most efficient way to improve societies". In this sense, Alcón has emphasized: "Innovation in training as well as in research, social innovation, gender equality, inclusive universities, the digital impulse, entrepreneurship, the international perspective or the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Objectives (ODS) of the United Nations".
