Solidariun18, the workshop of the University of Navarra dedicated to solidarity, brought together more than 500 people and 50 NGOs. IntermonOxfam, Red Cross, AECC, ONCE, ANFAS and Manos Unidas, among others, have made known to the students their work and the social needs that exist in the region.
The event was attended by the creator of the "Pastillas contra el dolor ajeno" campaign, Jorge Martínez, partner founder of Germinal Comunicación. The Solidariun Awards were also presented, firstly, to School Pharmacy and Nutrition and to the Cleaning Service and management of Events, in the categories of the most supportive School and Service.
Awards were also given to the most supportive junior and senior volunteers, which went to Luis Gonzalo, student of Architecture, and Conchi González Hernández, a volunteer from Navarre who collaborates in six Tantaka projects: CORE, ANFAS, CP San Juan de la Cadena, Villa Teresita, Fundación Fabre and Banco de Aimentos.
In addition, Sofía Labbé VIcondoa, a bilingual ADE and Law student, received the award for best solidarity photography for her image "Mamakiri"; and Laura García-Forte, a Biology student, received the award for best solidarity video for her video "Beauty in adversity". Labbé and García-Forte have spent part of their summer in Africa as volunteers.
The workshop, organized by Tantaka at partnership with companies such as Carrefour, Nordisven, Amstel and Häagen-Dazs, ended with a solidarity paella, in which more than 300 people participated.
