Institución de Educación Superior Adventista como respuesta a la problemática de los estudiantes universitarios adventistas en Bogotá

Abstract

The project aims to respond to the challenge of enabling Seventh-day Adventist students to benefit from equal and quality higher education. The project is based on the recognition of their right to conscientious objection and religious freedom. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the project analyzes indirect discrimination in academia and seeks solutions that respect both religious beliefs and academic goals. The promotion of diversity, otherness and inclusion in higher education is a key tool to address this challenge. The research reviews work that explores these issues and, the experience of Adventist students and the effects on their identity in the educational context. In addition, the project proposes to design a higher education institution as a response to this issue.
