Last year, the congress brought together more than 300 students, who, coordinated by a hundred teachers, presented 44 written papers and 23 videos. Also, within the congress a Contest of discussion was held with the participation of 12 groups and thirty students. 

Sixth edition of the congress

The congress FORUN, now in its sixth edition, aims to be an interdisciplinary space for reflection where students from any university can work as a team on a common topic , in this case "the family", coordinated by a professor.

In the same way that two years ago it was the School of Sciences and last year the Law, this year the School of Nursing will be in charge of sponsoring the congress.
