Universidade Católica Portuguesa announces its integration in the United Nations Global Compact Network, a network of companies and organizations around the world working to fulfill the Sustainable Development Agenda in accordance with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDOs).
 
Positioning itself in the Times Higher Education - THE - ranking as the best Portuguese university for the second consecutive year, the Catholic University, wants to be a leader by example in the fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Agenda with its academic community, as well as with all the stakeholders with which it contacts.
