Synopsis

The study University autonomy in Colombia led to an analysis of the threats facing university autonomy and the role and commitment of the university in the peace process. For these issues in the light of the past and present of universities, it is necessary to discuss new policies and institutional and normative rearrangements of higher education, to guarantee democratic processes. The different national and international perspectives that converged have brought about a collective scenario that brings together universities, educational organizations, different experts in the field and the academic community in general to discuss university autonomy and to discern the risks of its growing weakening in Colombia.
