Abstract

In this study, a prospective approach to the teaching-learning process was performed to improve the educational and pedagogical processes within Espiritu Santo University (UEES). As with all universities, UEES has been impacted substantially by the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional issues that have influenced educational processes in this university include the remarkable rise of the globalization process and regional conflicts; a global economic downturn; the need to keep pace with the rapid development of science and technology; the presence of unregulated markets that has caused the destruction of the environment and undesirable effects on climate change; an increase in the levels of poverty, hunger, and unemployment. In Latin American countries, those issues' impact is an ever-present reality, where inequalities and political corruption limit economic and social development. In this context, the challenges faced by higher education institutions in the region are significant. To contribute to constructing a more prosperous, just, and supportive society, a more sustainable model of integral human development is needed. The Declaration of the Regional Conference on Higher Education in Latin America and the Caribbean (2018) clearly expresses the high demands of these institutions concerning teaching, research, university extension, and institutional management.
