Collaborations
UPF aims to strengthen relations with the world of culture by organizing networks that facilitate contact between members of the university community and society as a whole and the country's main cultural institutions that, at the same time, enable UPF to become an organization that learns from others and shares the knowledge of others, while creating creative intersections, establishing new synergies and common strategies.
Vives Culture Forum
UPF is a member of this forum, whose aims include building a common reference framework to establish strategies in universities’ cultural policy. This commitment has resulted in the Charter of Universities and Culture, a guideline to face the challenges posed by culture at the universities of the 21st century.

En el marc de l'Any Tàpies, la Universitat Pompeu Fabra i la Fundació Antoni Tàpies van signar un conveni de col·laboració per crear la Càtedra Antoni Tàpies-UPF d’Art i Pensament Contemporanis. Aquesta càtedra té com a principal objectiu fomentar la docència, la recerca i la difusió del coneixement en relació a Antoni Tàpies.
Joan Miró Foundation
Pompeu Fabra University and the Joan Miró Foundation have signed a cooperation agreement to promote interest in contemporary art and the Foundation’s Collection among the university community. This agreement materializes in the creation of a Joan Miró Foundation-UPF Contemporary Art chair, the temporary loan to UPF of two works of the Foundation’s Collection and of part of the resources of the Foundation’s Library to the UPF General Library.
Vila Casas Foundation
The University has signed an agreement with the Vila Casas Foundation which aims to establish a cooperation framework and a space for dialogue shared between the two institutions, and thus promote contemporary art and artistic creation within UPF. The projects and shared activities include the creation of an art centre which will include the figure of the resident artist at UPF, a space for joint research and a course on contemporary art.
Ibercamera
La Universitat va signar l'any 2023 un conveni amb l'associoació Iberamera per tal de fomentar la dinamització cultural de la comunitat universitària de la UPF i, en especial, la difusió de la música clàssica i el coneixement dels músics i les orquestres.
IDEAL Centre d'Arts Digitals
UPF and IDEAL have signed an agreement that focuses on three main areas of collaboration: teaching, research and dissemination of cultural activities.
Teatre Lliure
In 2015, UPF signed an agreement with the Teatre Lliure establishing a joint programme of activities centred on the thematic or conceptual thread of the Lliure’s programme. Since then, there has been a series of initiatives aimed at promoting participation by the university community in the activities of Teatre Lliure, which have also allowed theatre professionals and the public to approach the vision and knowledge of the academic world, in a shared humanistic, multidisciplinary cultural environment.
