About us

Our Story

Esade SUD’s origins can be traced back to our university’s early efforts in the development cooperation area. These began in the 1980s with faculty travelling to Central America to participate in local faculty training seminars and to teach in university master’s programmes.

Based on this tradition, we created Esade SUD in 2003 to make our community’s talent available to social enterprises, not-for-profits and institutions working for global justice in Latin America, Africa, Europe and Asia and to further their work.

Fomenting education

amongst citizens from economically prosperous countries who are also highly sensitive to social justice and its promotion.

Strengthening institutions

in economically impoverished countries to ensure their work has greater impact and can be sustained over time.
