Blanquerna Solidary Action The Blanquerna Solidarity Action project is complementary
to the professional training and/or occupation provided in
all the Centres, as a faithful show of Blanquerna’s
educational ideals: solidarity, freedom and responsibility,
human dignity and the will to service.
Blanquerna Solidarity Action suggests that you use your
free time for actions of solidarity from each professional
field. It involves social action based upon volunteering,
expressed in many different forms and modes allowing those
who take part to develop their altruistic side and provide
a service to society.
It promotes voluntary cooperation and participation in
the different projects in the Third and Fourth World. In
addition to this, it encourages university research groups,
joining solidarity campaigns when they occur, and organises
training events.
What do
we do?
Solidarity projects in different
areas during the year: children, the elderly, the sick, the
disabled, immigrants, prison inmates, the young, etc. from
different NGO's and resources from civil society.
Training and reflection through
ASB training seminars, solidarity tables, specific lectures
and training courses in cooperation with other entities.
Solidarity summer camps and
longer stays in the third world: Nuevo Laredo (Mexico), Matagalpa
(Nicaragua), Togo (Africa), Anantapur (India).
The consolidation of the University
Research Groups (GUR) in New paradigms of solidarity. Accompanying
the terminally ill and others who are training.
In the fourth world. In Barcelona's
Raval neighbourhood and other districts of our cities, in
cooperation with different NGO's and resources from the site
from which they act.
Joining occasional citizens'
campaigns: Aid to Bosnia, Algeria, the March against child
labour, The Great Lakes war, A flower for the women of Kabul,
The European citizens' conference for human rights, etc.
Raising awareness
of solidarity in our centres. Through the ASB areas, the "correupaperosúric",
ASB leaflets, SETEM's "Vents del Sud" exhibitions
and Eradication of poverty to build one world of Justice and
Peace, sandwich boards announcing the actions already carried
out, involvement in Christmas and St. Jordi by the different
centres, among other initiatives.
As you can see,
there are so many actions just waiting for you to join in.
