From November 29 to December 1, the University of La Laguna will host the 25th Rectors' Meeting, entitled this year "Living Between Skies, Oceans, and Volcanoes: Education and Research for a Resilient Future." The Aula Magna of the Central Building has been chosen as the venue for its opening ceremony, which will be presided over by Francisco J. García Rodríguez, Rector of the University of La Laguna; Pilar Garcés García, Rector of the University of Valladolid; José da Costa Filho, Rector of the University of Rio de Janeiro (UNIRIO); and Luís Manuel dos Anjos Ferreira, Rector of the University of Lisbon.

A panel discussion, moderated by José Manuel García Fraga, Vice-Rector for Teaching at the University of La Laguna (ULL), will follow, entitled "Higher Education Facing Global Challenges: New Educational Offerings, Values-Based Education and Education for Sustainable Development, Interdisciplinarity, and Training for the Future." This discussion will analyze how universities are integrating the challenges facing higher education, as well as new academic models and the internationalization of the curriculum. Approaches such as education for sustainable development and resilience, interdisciplinarity and teaching innovation, and various educational and international collaboration strategies for training professionals capable of addressing complex and global contexts will be discussed.

The day will be completed with two other dialogue tables and will end with a joint meeting of the Doctoral Colleges in the Aula Magna of the Central Building of the University of La Laguna and in the Multipurpose Room.
