The rector, Julián Garde, explained that they have asked for old photos in rural areas to illustrate both the posters of the courses and the triptych of each one of them. Likewise, the two general posters show two children in a field of sunflowers and photos of families on the streets of numerous municipalities. “We want to involve society with this contribution of images and thus recognize the effort that regional society has made for the university,” he added.
