Bring the student closer to the business reality in which he will carry out the activity as a professional and develop skills that favor incorporation into the labor market.

Internships must take place in a safe space, free of sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic and discriminatory attitudes, either towards the students or towards the other agents involved. We trust that together we can create a safe space where we can make mistakes and learn without having to suffer the prejudices of others.
