The universities UNESP, Unicamp, and USP will hold the Congresso de Extensão e Cultura “Juntas pensando o futuro” (Extension and Culture Congress “Together thinking about the future”) on June 26 and 27, 2023, at the Centro de Convenções da Unicamp. The event aims to provide participants with the opportunity to exchange experiences about university extension and discuss the main trends and challenges in the area, from the perspective of three state and public universities in the state of São Paulo.
University extension is one of the ways to connect universities to society, taking the knowledge produced in academic institutions beyond the university walls. It is an important tool to foster citizenship, social inclusion, and sustainable development, besides contributing to the education of students and the production of knowledge relevant to society.
The exchange of experiences between universities is fundamental for the strengthening of university extension and for the improvement of teaching, research, and extension practices. The O Congresso de Extensão e Cultura “Juntas pensando o futuro” of São Paulo State Universities is an opportunity for students, researchers, teachers, and professionals to exchange experiences, debate, and reflect on university extension practices, seeking to improve and expand the social impact of extension activities.
Enrollment for the Congress is already open and can be done through the event’s website at http://congresso3universidades.proec.unicamp.br/.
