This course pretends to give students the keys to develop an active, compromised and sustainable citizenship, from the comprehension of Human Rights, environmental respect, social justice and collaborative work. This way, it will provide tools to comprehend the global challenges, question them with critical spirit to then act with responsibility.

The planetary crisis in the 21th century explained from its impact in sustainability is one of the challenges that will be tackled this course.
