Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: Evidence in today's world establishes that there are no frontiers for science; advances in information and communication technology, with the creation of virtual networks capable of compressing and eventually dematerializing historical time and geographic space, information that becomes an input and a product at the same time; which makes us reflect on the relevance of Higher Education at the University of Panama as a pillar of national growth and development. Very difficult situations are currently being experienced worldwide and nationally for the population as a result of the COVID 19 SARS 2 pandemic, combined with a very agitated world, where it is intended to model a sociocultural revolution that does not necessarily seek participation, or equity of gender and social, where respect for cultural diversity, the conservation of natural resources, human development, and the sustainable and sustainable development of humanity are still violated. And it is that the diversity and growing inequality analyzed from the economic liberalism translated into a globalized world, has its effects on the social sciences, promotes the search for new paradigms that explain the complexity and social diversity and new ways to creatively incorporate the accumulation of historical knowledge; where the University of Panama as a quality higher education proposal becomes an integrating element where inequalities are reduced and a constant source of opportunity for the most vulnerable populations in conditions of poverty and extreme poverty.
