Looking back to build the future

[...] Over the years, we have become a benchmark in teaching excellence and in the inseparable dimension of a comprehensive and personalized education. For Blanquerna, teaching is not only the transmission of knowledge from technical learning, it also implies the expression of values of the global education of students, which, as stated in Blanquerna-URL's mission statement, "is understood as a pluralistic university community inspired by the principles of Christian humanism, whose mission is the integral education of people so that they become competent, ethical professionals committed to social transformation, creating knowledge at the service of justice and the common good". [...]

"If we do not understand each other through language, let us understand each other through love" - Ramon Llull

The composer Bernat Vivancos describes the creative process in this wonderful text. Among other interesting aspects, he explains, by way of introduction, that "Musically, the text was very seductive to me, and I immediately wanted to illustrate in music the idea of this great "Canticle of canticles" that is the "Book of the Friend and Beloved", in which the friend (Blanquerna) dialogues, flirts, falls in love, etc. with the beloved (God)."

Committed to the integral education of the human being since 1948

Our history is our essence. Blanquerna was born in the spirit of training teachers committed to the integral education of the human being, at a time when innovative proposals committed to social transformation were needed.

Miscel·lània dels 75 anys de Blanquerna: "Entenam-nos per amor".

Aquesta miscel·lània és un recull d’articles que ajuden a entendre com d’aquella petita Escola de Mestres de l’Església en va sorgir una prestigiosa Facultat de Ciències de l’Educació, i com de tot aquell projecte es van crear tres facultats que imparteixen graus en els àmbits de l’educació, la salut, la comunicació, l’esport i les relacions internacionals. I sense oblidar el protagonisme de Blanquerna en la gestació i la creació d’un altre gran projecte, la Universitat Ramon Llull.
