Education

BBVA’s commitment to education was once more evident in 2010 through its alliance with the Organization of Ibero-American States and their “Educational Goals 2021: the education we want for the Bicentenary Generation.” This is an ambitious project that will decisively contribute to the economic and social development of Ibero-America and to the education of a generation of cultured - and therefore free - citizens, in democratic, egalitarian, open and caring societies. The aim is to achieve an education over the next ten years that provides a satisfactory response to urgent social demands: a higher rate of schooling and for a longer time, with recognized quality education that is fair and inclusive and in which the majority of the institutions and sectors of society take part. In short, a commitment by BBVA to investment in education in Latin America that will benefit more than 8 million people.
