The University of Barcelona, in favour of freedom and dialogue

(03/11/2017)

Regarding the imprisonment of several members of the Catalan Government, we believe these harsh prosecutions, which we do not share, do not contribute to find any solutions to the current serious political situation in our country. 

We reiterate our conviction in the supreme value of democracy, our absolute support to the legitimate institutions in Catalonia and the defense for self-government.

We are and will be at the service of Catalan society and we insist on our call for dialogue as the only possible solution.

We will debate and reach an agreement within the direction and governing bodies of the UB the actions to take regarding the possible scenarios that can come up in order to preserve the principle of university autonomy and guarantee our own functions.
