Research Summary
The purpose of this project is to address the issues of poverty and hunger through the awareness and action of university students, specifically at the universidad Francisco de Vitoria (UFV). The urgency of this project is justified by the persistence of global inequalities, where access to decent living conditions and equitable food remains a challenge. Through the implementation of strategies focused on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 1 and 2, it seeks not only to inform but also to actively involve the university community in the search for solutions
In a world where inequalities persist and equitable access to decent living conditions and adequate food remains a global challenge, the UFV assumes a strategic position to promote significant change in the University Community. The essence of this project lies in the urgency of studying and researching these issues from an educational and participatory perspective, recognizing that economic disparity and lack of access to basic resources are challenges that must be faced collectively.
We urgently need to point out a fundamental premise: the urgent need to address the persistent problems of poverty and hunger. Through a comprehensive strategy of awareness and action, aimed specifically at the UFV student community, we seek not only to inform, but also to empower students to become active agents in the fight against poverty and hunger.
