EINA has signed the framework agreement with the institutions, universities and entities that promote the Campus de les Arts (Campus of the Arts), the platform led by the University of Barcelona with the aim of strengthening artistic education at a higher level, which brings together nineteen faculties and centres of university or higher artistic education in Catalonia in the disciplines of fine arts, design, music, theatre, dance, cinema and conservation, and restoration.
The other major objective of the Campus de les Arts is to rehabilitate the Can Ricart factory site, declared a cultural asset of national interest, as its headquarters. For the refurbishment and adaptation of this project, the UB has applied for funding under the Next Generation EU funds.
The signing of the framework agreement, held on 12 November at the UB, was attended by the Catalan Minister for Research and Universities, Gemma Geis; the Deputy Mayor for Culture, Education and Science of Barcelona City Council, Jordi Martí; and representatives of seven of the Catalan universities and centres of higher artistic education that are part of the project, including Pau de Solà-Morales, director of EINA.
