With one day remaining for the closing of the International University Congress 2022, José Ramón Saborido Loidi, Minister of Higher Education, described the event as successful, the first of its magnitude after the pandemic.
The minister referred that all the thematic axes of university education have been dealt with in the symposiums and panels that make up the theoretical program.
During a meeting with the press, he preliminarily reported that more than 400 foreign academics and experts have joined the event, from 37 countries and most with face-to-face participation.
Saborido Loidi said that within the framework of University 2022 dozens of bilateral agreements have been signed with all the participating countries, including Romania, Panama, Mexico, Russia and the United Arab Emirates.
It is an honor that the President of the Republic, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, offered the inaugural conference on the Government Management System based on science and innovation, which forces us to be more pertinent in relation to this task that is organized in macroprojects, in which the university community is involved, he stressed.
The head of the MES meant the participation of students and young professionals in impact programs in sectors of production of goods and services, in order to promote the necessary transformations.
A work commission is formed to train our university students under the innovative spirit, whose action will have repercussions to the extent that the work location is in a center with those conditions, he said.
This Thursday, the conference focused on the role of universities in confronting COVID-19, the benefit generated by science-technology parks in the companies and territories where they are located, as well as creation from artistic education.
The XIII Edition of the International University Congress 2022 will conclude this Friday at the Convention Center, with notable results in the integration between the universities and research centers of the MES throughout the country, in addition to the expansion of bilateral collaboration.
