The University of Navarra, through the volunteer service UAS-Tantaka and in collaboration with the NGO Coopera, has launched the XI Solidarity Study Olympics. Under the slogan "My study draws their future", the initiative aims to raise awareness among students and involve them with their time and personal effort in a solidarity project.

The Olympiad, which will take place between November 5 and December 5, will be held in the Libraries of Humanities, Architecture, Theology and Science, as well as on the campus of San Sebastian. Students must record the time they dedicate to study and the sponsors convert each hour into one euro, which will be used to finance cooperation projects linked to education and training. On this occasion, the money raised will be invested in the reconstruction of schools for boys and girls in Haiti so that they can study in better conditions.

Thousands of young people from 15 countries in Europe, Latin America and Africa participate in the Solidarity Study Olympiad.
