Project UNIBILITY

University Meets Social Responsibility – UNIBILITY is an Erasmus+ project that was launched in October 2015 and is scheduled to run until October 2017. The UB is one of a number of partners in the project and will channel its involvement through the Internal Control, Risks and Corporate Social Responsibility office, with the support of Dr Isabel Vidal, director of the Centre for Research on Citizenship and Civil Society (CISC). Joining the UB in the UNIBILITY project framework are Dublin City University (Ireland), the University of Porto (Portugal), the Public University of Ptuj (Slovenia), the Polytechnic University of Bucharest (Romania), the University of Vienna (Austria) and the Belgium-based European University Continuing Education Network (EUCEN).

UNIBILITY will seek to consolidate social responsibility at the participating universities by pursuing the following specific objectives:

- To strengthen the commitment between higher education institutions and their local communities.
- To develop proactive strategies for bolstering social responsibility among the student community and in research activities.
- To develop service-learning projects that have an impact on the social environment.
- To create learning materials and provide training in social responsibility to university administrators and students.
- To create learning networks between higher education institutions, local businesses, and social and environmental stakeholders.
