pluriversity

A university, viewed as an institution of tertiary education that is segmented into specialties which do not interact, especially specialties that focus on applications for external organizations.

Should and could we move from a university to the pluriversity? Was this to be a strictly secular or non-secular institution? Who would benefit from the pluriversity, with its new forms of knowledge?

For that we need instead of a university, a pluriversity. A pluriversity has the responsibility of educating future generations to live not only in pluri-national states, as has been declared, for example, in the constitutions of Bolivia and Ecuador, but also in a pluri-spistemic and pluri-spiritual world.
