Next Monday, 13 May, the Cultural Centre La Nau will hold a new conference of the Claustre Obert programme entitled 'General and Regional Elections 2019. New challenges and old problems', which will take place in the Paraninfo of the centre at 07:00 p.m. Admission is free until full capacity.

The event has been jointly organised by the Universitat de València, the Department of Political Science and Administration of the Faculty of Law and the newspaper Levante-EM, in collaboration with the Observatory of Valencian Regional Policy.

The round table will feature the participation of five professors of Political Science from different universities, who will try to outline the new and old challenges facing Spanish politics following the results of the elections held on 28 April.  Lecturers Nieves Lagares and Erika Járaiz, both lecturers at the University of Santiago de Compostela, and Juan Rodríguez-Teruel, Óscar Barberá and Pablo Oñate, political experts at the Universitat de València, will take part.  

The programme will continue in June, on the 3rd, with the analysis of the results of the call for elections of 26 May. The cycle will resume in October, Monday 14, with a study on new urban mobility, with phenomena such as electric scooters, the widespread use of bicycles and restrictions on private traffic.  In November, the session on Monday 11 will be dedicated to the present and future of animal rights, and in December, Monday 9, Claustre Obert's programme will conclude with the analysis of the future of pensions by specialists in the field.

Claustre Obert is a programme drawn up and run jointly by the teams of the Vice-rectorate for Culture and Sport of the Universitat de València and the Levante-EMV newspaper. It is intended to be a space for meeting and debate, with a plural and open vocation, which analyses social and economic reality through a circle of conferences that will be held on the second Monday of each month between January and December at the Cultural Centre La Nau.
