SOME CONCLUSIONS • THE UNIVERSITY AS OTHER COLOMBIAN PUBLIC ORGANIZATIONS LACKS ROBUST,
EFFICIENT AND SENSITIVE INFORMATION SYSTEMS TO IDENTIFY ACTIONS DERIVED
FROM I+D+i.
• “UNIVERSITY EXTENSION” ACTIVITIES DIRECTLY ASSOCIATED WITH COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT TAKES PLACE IN REGIONS WITH BEST CONDITIONS FOR
DEVELOPMENT, THEREBY NOT CONTRIBUTIG TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE
MOST UNDERPRIVILEDGED REGIONS.
• MOST UNIVERSITY ACTIVITIES ARE DEVELOPED IN URBAN REGIONS, THEREBY
NEGLECTING THE INTERGRATION OF THE RUAL SECTOR.
• THE MAKING OF PUBLIC POLICIES FOR SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT HAS A LOW
SYNERGY REGARDING THE CAPACITIES AND DYNAMICS OF COLOMBIAN
UNIVERSITIES.
SOME CONCLUSIONS • THE UNIVERSITY DYNAMICS LACKS CLEAR STRATEGIES TO INTEGRATE WITH
POLICIES AND PROBLEMS IDENTIFIED INTERNATIONALLY.
• INDEPENDENT THINKING AND KNOWLEDGE ACQUISITION vs CONTEXT‐RELATED
PROBLEMS (FREE SCIENTIFIC PRODUCTION OR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY?).
• LOW SYNERGY OF KNOWLEDGE AND NEEDS BETWEEN UNIVERSITY AND SOCIETY a
DISCOURAGING (LETHAL) FACTOR IN BUILDING POSTAGREEMENT PEACE ACTIONS
IN COLOMBIA.
