Abstract
This report (HEIW6) aims to analyse the responsibilities of universities at local and global level, exploring the potential conflicts, and intrinsic difficulties, in addressing both the local demands of society based on the race for global competitiveness and the local and global demands to contribute to a more equitable and sustainable society. Furthermore, the concept of engagement is understood beyond the limited understandings of a third mission, so as to promote a mature view of the concept of engagement that integrates changes in internal organization, structures, dynamics, incentives and recognition systems that allow academia to advance new ways of developing its core mission.
