III International Conference on Guidance at University
"CALIBRATING COMPASSES IN THE FACE OF UNCERTAINTY"
Madrid 6, 7 and 8 September 2023
With the aim of promoting debate on various aspects of university guidance and contributing to its scientific and practical advancement, the following topics –distributed in three main stages– are proposed: prior to, during and after university studies. We consider that guidance should be addressed to all people, from a participatory and equitable approach, guaranteeing equal opportunities and results in all areas of human development, and avoiding any type of discrimination. Therefore, no explicit mention of specific groups is made in the themes. The proposals focused on guidance for vulnerable groups or people with other special circumstances will be included in one of the three large thematic areas of the conference, depending on the stage that they address or to whom they are aimed.
Proposals for symposia/papers/posters can address any of these topics:
