The rector of the Universitat Jaume I, Eva Alcón, participated as a panellist in the V International Meeting of Universia Rectors, which was held from 8 to 10 May in Valencia. Alcón, in a session that has reflected on the collaboration of universities with governments, industry and society, has advocated for a university system more connected with society, both locally and internationally, in order to strengthen the role of the university as an engine to promote sustainable development in its triple dimension: social, environmental and economic.

Nearly 700 university rectors and leaders from 14 countries, as well as personalities from politics, business, and national and international institutions, gathered at the Meeting under the theme "University and Society".
