CAUT Universia is a collaborative network of universities created by the Banco Santander in 2000 to impose their views on higher education and university aims to adapt to market needs, or as they say, "bring to universities the business world. " This network is present in 23 Latin American countries and has presence in about 1169 universities. In Spain, the rectors of universities, as shareholders of Universia, meets every year at a General Meeting of Shareholders to decide on strategic plans to follow in the coming months.
In those days, a also the general assembly Emprendia Network (Red Iberoamericana University Business Incubation ") and a meeting of the International Advisory Council of Universia. Among others, will attend the general meeting Emilio Botin, Banco Santander presidende, Federico Gutiérrez-Solana, President of the Conference of Rectors of English Universities (CRUE), José Antonio Villasante Hill, director general of Santander Universities Global Division, and Jaume Pagés, CEO of Universia.
The decisions made behind the backs of society and the educational community are based on economic principles are not imposed on such far as the World Trade Organization, the World Bank and of course the EU recently signed the Lisbon Treaty, which aims to make Europe the most competitive region in the world based on knowledge, as they call it: the knowledge society. So, blame the political entrepreneurs and international organizations complicit in making decisions that benefit the few over the population.
We can not let them get away with it, so we say:
that education does is commodified, THAT THE UNIVERSITY IS NOT THAT THE PRIVATIZATION AND FORMING PART OF IT, WE WILL NOT BE EXPLOITED. ARE NOT WELL RECEIVED OR OS OS WANT OR NEED.
