Guanajuato, Gto., June 22, 2016. Within activities of the Report of Corporate Social Responsibility from Ferrero Group, the General Rector of the University of Guanajuato (UG), Dr. Luis Felipe Guerrero Agripino, sustained that it is urgent to change the paradigms of the current civilization, and made a call so the education lay the groundwork for a better citizenship and a society provided with ethical principles.

Invited to reveal the vision of the Social Responsibility from the class, Dr. Guerrero Agripino pointed that the social responsibility of the education must translate in knowledge, attitudes and values that permeate in all areas of knowledge, that allow to configure a democratic society, in which the human rights are respected.

He said that the Ferrero Group's philosophy, that relies on the principal "The fabric for the man and not the man for the fabric", has an enormous impact in our society, because it proves that you can reach the commercial success and maintain the respect towards people and environment.
