Once again this year, the University of Barcelona is pleased to present the Report on Social Responsibility. This report gives an account of the UB’s main activities in relation to our ethical commitments and social responsibilities during the academic year 2017-2018. In the following pages, readers will find comprehensive data on the UB, including the most important information on our management ethics, our responsibility to students and to staff,
our impact on society and the economy, and our commitment to improve the natural environment, among other matters. This is because the University of Barcelona is a leading national and international institution not only as a consequence of the quality of our teaching and research—
where the UB has achieved very strong positions in a number of international rankings—
but also because of our firm belief in making a positive impact on our environment through
the activities that we carry out.
As a public institution, the University has a duty to give back to society everything that society
has provided to us. This report, which gives a public accounting of our efforts, reflects this commitment
and its results with the utmost transparency. The report also demonstrates to society
the values of excellence and fairness with which the University faces the challenges set before us.
In closing, I would like to stress that the information provided in this report reflects the sustained
effort and thoroughness of everyone who is a member of the groups that make up our
university community, that is, our teaching and research staff, our administrative and service
staff and our students.
I invite you to pore over this Report on Social Responsibility, which will give you an excellent
insight into the many facets that make up the University of Barcelona.
