Choir Club
Objectives and Justification
Choral music holds a pivotal role in the holistic education of students. It provides an avenue not only for the development of musical abilities, but also for the enhancement of social, emotional, ethical, and cognitive skills. Participation in a choir enables students to work collaboratively, express their emotions, contemplate ethical values, think critically, build self-confidence, communicate effectively, and actively engage in the cultural and artistic life of their community. Thus, the promotion of choral music in education contributes to a well-rounded and enriching educational experience for students.
The choir is an activity that necessitates cooperation and teamwork among all its members. Students learn to listen to and respond to the voices of others, coordinate their actions, and follow the conductor's instructions. Furthermore, the choir offers opportunities for students to collaborate in creating vocal arrangements and performing songs, fostering creativity and collective decision-making. In this manner, the choir serves as a platform where students learn to work collectively towards a shared objective.
A choir is more than just a musical endeavor; it is a social environment where students can interact and form connections. Participating in a choir teaches students teamwork, effective communication, and constructive conflict resolution. It also provides an outlet for emotional expression through singing, aiding in the development of emotional skills such as empathy, self-expression, and emotional regulation.
Choral music has the unique ability to convey messages and values through its lyrics and melodies. This medium allows students to learn about and reflect on ethical and moral issues, such as solidarity, justice, and respect for others. Moreover, participation in a choir fosters values like discipline, commitment, and responsibility, as it demands regular practice and dedication from its members.
The choir is an inclusive space that welcomes all students, regardless of their vocal ability or prior experience. Everyone has the opportunity to contribute their unique voice. The choir can also incorporate a variety of musical styles and cultures, promoting diversity and respect for differences. Through their involvement in the choir, students learn to value and appreciate the voices and perspectives of others, thereby fostering a culture of inclusion in music education.
Nebrija Choir Club Methodology
The club's activities will primarily involve rehearsals of a choral repertoire, handpicked by the choir director who oversees the activity. We will allocate four hours each week, split into two two-hour rehearsals on two separate days (to be determined).
Requirements and Evaluation Criteria
- While the ability to read music is not a prerequisite, a basic understanding of music theory could be beneficial. Regardless of your vocal prowess or prior experience, all students are welcome to join the choir. We will conduct assessments to ensure a minimum level of vocal and musical aptitude.
- For each full academic year, participants will be awarded 2 ECTS credits. The Nebrija University choir will represent the institution in at least two or three concerts throughout the academic year. To earn the credits, members must attend the concerts and at least 85% of the rehearsals, in addition to achieving a passing grade (PASS) grade.

The "Young People for Young People" initiative is an educational and awareness program centered on human rights and values, specifically designed for boys, girls, and young university students. Through comprehensive training in human rights, advocacy for essential values, and fostering youth engagement in volunteering, our aim is to cultivate a culture of human rights awareness. This empowers children and young individuals to recognize their rights and responsibilities towards others, nurturing their growth as conscientious members of a globally connected, interdependent, free, peaceful, pluralistic, and inclusive society.
Participation in the project is open to young university students, as well as boys and girls aged between 5 and 18, representing schools from various Autonomous Communities.
Young university students undergo a comprehensive five-day training program led by various experts specializing in Human Rights and Sustainable Development Goals. Delivered in afternoon sessions spanning four hours each day, this curriculum encompasses diverse topics such as environmental sustainability, migration and refugees, combating cyberbullying in educational settings, mental and emotional health, gender equality, and other related areas.
Upon completing their training, these young students apply their newly acquired knowledge in schools partnered with Helsinki Spain. Using participatory methodologies, dynamic activities, and educational games, they conduct awareness workshops for school-aged children. This approach empowers university students to transition from passive listeners to active agents within the project, assuming responsibility for driving change within their communities. The amalgamation of training and practical engagement through volunteering stands as the most effective approach for internalizing concepts and instilling values. Schoolchildren exhibit a notably positive interaction with these young university mentors.
Thus far, we have successfully trained 5,150 dedicated volunteers from over 75 different universities, imparting knowledge on Human Rights and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Leveraging their commitment, we have reached out to more than 40,084 boys and girls across 100 schools spanning various Autonomous Communities: Andalusia, Castilla y León, Castilla-La Mancha, the Valencian Community, Galicia, the Canary Islands, Madrid, the Basque Country, and the Principality of Asturias.
Expanding our impact globally, this initiative has extended its reach to international territories, including the United States, Italy, Mexico, and Portugal. Concurrently, we have conducted training sessions on 'emotional intelligence and conflict resolution' for 200 parents, along with 'gender equality and human rights' programs for 100 educators.
Enabling Digital Inclusion for Seniors.
The rapid digital revolution has rendered previously unaffected groups, such as our elders, more vulnerable. At Fundación Telefónica, our commitment lies in fostering an open, connected, inclusive, and human-centered digital society. We envision a world where everyone holds potential, where progress is a shared journey accessible to all.
'Reconnected' (Reconectados) stands as a testament to Telefónica's Social Action and Volunteering program—a dedicated initiative aimed at bridging the digital gap for older individuals. Through this project, we endeavor to bring technology closer to our seniors, narrowing the digital divide. By fostering connections between older generations and their families, we aim to empower them digitally, granting them greater autonomy in navigating the digital realm.
Every Thursday, a group of 20 seniors will gather at one of the Telefónica Foundation Space classrooms for an in-person workshop. The session aims to enhance their familiarity with smartphones, improve their usage of WhatsApp, explore applications beneficial for their daily lives, and delve into cybersecurity.
As a volunteer, your role involves providing support to the elderly attendees throughout these weekly workshops, assisting them with various exercises.
Each workshop spans two hours, running from 11:00h to 13h. Prior to the session, from 10:00 to 11:00h, there will be a brief training and preparation session to cover all activity details.
SEO BirdLife stands as the oldest nature conservation NGO in Spain, known as the Spanish Ornithological Society. Established in 1954, our mission has remained unwavering over the years: With birds as our emblem, we are dedicated to conserving biodiversity through the active engagement of society. Our core focus lies in preserving nature, with a specific emphasis on avian life.
SEO/BirdLife serves as the official representative organization of BirdLife International in Spain. This federation unites associations committed to bird conservation from across the globe. BirdLife International ranks as the largest global organization dedicated to bird and nature conservation, boasting a presence in 121 countries and rallying approximately 13 million members and supporters worldwide.

Description
Cinema is still a great part of our life. Cinema, beyond being magical entertainment, is also a form of communication; an artistic manifestation capable of reinventing itself over time. In this club we will watch movies and episodes of series, and then talk about them. We will think about the image, we will have meetings with protagonists that, in one way or another, are related to the so-called seventh art. Reflecting on cinema is always fun.
Place
Assembly Hall, San Francisco de Sales Campus.
Special sessions will eventually be held in movie theaters in the city of Madrid.
Schedule
Wednesday and/or Thursday afternoon. Approximately every fortnight. According to available space.
What is it
Knowing that cinema is a perfect learning tool, Nebrija University is committed to hosting a permanent and dynamic CinemaClub. All our screenings are always accompanied by a subsequent debate, in which we can reflect on the different aesthetic, thematic and generic proposals that filmmakers have been shaping over more than a hundred years of history. In this club we view images, but we also think about them; without fear of the different narratives that populate the world, approaching classical cinema, contemporary films and, also, audiovisual disciplines as diverse as short films, video clips and transmedia projects.
Activities program 2024/25
Approximately twelve sessions are planned for the 2024/25 academic year, to be held between October and April. In order to obtain the credits, the student will have to attend 80% of the screenings. This year's program is yet to be defined, since the films that will be projected are chosen based on the interests of the students, the professor who coordinates the Club, and the cinematographic and/or social events that take place at the time.
The program is varied, it is not closed to any esthetic proposal. As an example, some of the films screened last year were Chungking Express, Videodrome, La escopeta nacional, Clímax, Frances Ha, Peter Pan, Viridiana, Ana de Día, Cold War, Senderos de gloria…
- Likewise, special sessions will be held with entities linked to the audiovisual sector, having collaborated in other years with Short Film Week of the Community of Madrid, Casa de México, Cines Verdi or Movistar, or with events such as Women's Week.
- The regular sessions of the Cineclub are usually held every fifteen days, in the afternoon, and consist of the projection of a film and a subsequent colloquium moderated by Professors Nicolás Grijalba and Diego Prior. In some sessions, the moderators will be accompanied by a professor and/or guest-specialist, who will provide more information about the viewed film.
- Taking advantage of Nebrija University's central location, in the heart of Madrid, some of these sessions will be held outside the university campus, making it possible to visit an exhibition related to the cinematographic event, or holding a screening in certain cinemas in the capital.

Description
The Nebrija Art Club serves as a platform where members can explore, share, and cultivate their artistic interests and research within the university setting. We warmly invite you to join this collaborative space, which is designed to foster relationships and facilitate initiatives that resonate with both the university and the broader community.
The club offers a range of activities that complement the Bachelor's in Fine Arts, providing additional support. These activities are specifically designed to deepen your understanding and appreciation of the art world.
Location
The club's activities will be hosted at the San Francisco de Sales Campus. Additionally, we will organize visits to various spaces and events, offering members the opportunity to immerse themselves in and gain first-hand knowledge of the contemporary cultural landscape.
Workshops
Considering the wide array of artistic techniques and materials available to today's artists, the Art Club will conduct courses and workshops that cover a diverse range of artistic techniques.
Visits
Visits form a crucial component of the club's activities. We will have the privilege of hosting various artists from the current cultural scene throughout the academic year. Furthermore, we will organize visits to different spaces and events, enabling members to familiarize themselves with the cultural environment that surrounds us.
Competences and Outcomes
Our activities and visits offer a plethora of opportunities to delve into the realm of artistic practices. Several times a month, we will engage with key figures in the cultural field, visit exhibitions, and explore artists' studios. Our aim is to establish a comprehensive program of training activities in contemporary art and thought.
During these visits, we will focus on understanding modern art and emphasizing the significance of visual literacy. Visual literacy is the capacity to evaluate, apply, or create conceptually grounded visual representations. This includes the ability to assess the advantages of visual representations for the creation and communication of knowledge, or for proposing innovative ways of expressing ideas. Our educational approach involves connecting visualization with its contexts. This means equipping members with the critical mindset and tools necessary to develop suitable visualization formats for specific topics. This is achieved through the use of movement, shape, rhythm, color, and texture within the context of our environment.
Activities Program 2024-2025
The activities are scheduled to take place on Wednesday or Thursday afternoons in the designated spaces as per the program. Please note that the dates and times of these activities are subject to change. As outlined in the program, we organize two activities per month, which include a visit to an exhibition and a meeting or workshop with a contemporary artist. For any queries or concerns, please write to eandrews@nebrija.es.
