V campaign 'Day of Healthy Universities'

The Spanish Network of Healthy Universities (REUS) celebrates, for the fifth consecutive year, the Day of Healthy Universities, a campaign that wants to make visible the work done jointly by the universities of the network.

The REUS, which was established in 2008 and is currently coordinated by the University of the Balearic Islands, is made up of 55 universities, 2 ministries (the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports), the Conference of Rectors (CRUE ) and nine public health structures of the autonomous communities.

The Day of Healthy Universities was born to commemorate the Declaration of Pamplona, ​​on October 7, 2009, a date that REUS wants to honor by celebrating the celebration of healthy habits in universities every year.

The goal of healthy universities is to incorporate and integrate health promotion in the educational field, creating environments that serve as an example to the university population and, therefore, to society.
