Antonio Abruña Puyol, rector of the University of Piura.
After two years of staying away due to the global health emergency, in 2022-I we gradually returned to in-person attendance. We did it with a host of mixed feelings: with sadness, for the people who died due to the pandemic; with joy, hope and, above all, with a lot of optimism to meet again, to return, little by little, to the new normal.
We had prepared for a long time, taking all the necessary precautions to allow us to return safely. We implemented CO2 meters in classrooms, optimized ventilation systems, built outdoor classrooms and new meeting spaces on campuses. We renovated classrooms and offices, with a new distribution and adapted capacity; and, we follow all the biosafety measures recommended by the authorities.
In this return, we reaffirm that we are and will always be a face-to-face university; We value the benefits of technology, but we are clear that personal contact, closeness, accessibility, and company are part of our mission, because through this relationship a bond of knowledge, appreciation, and affection arises that is fundamental for the education we seek.
2022 has been a year in which we have continued dedicated to comprehensive training, research, internationalization, social responsibility actions, and promoting the growth of our community.
Although it has been a year with a politically turbulent social environment, the effort and dedication of each of the members of the university have allowed a series of achievements and satisfaction in all areas of the work of this house of studies. Also, we resumed actions to improve the university (in staff training, teacher training and infrastructure) to better serve our society.
