The IEM is a Higher Institute integrated into the Pontifical University of Salamanca, through the Faculty of Education in the Luis Vives Building. It was created at the proposal of the Provincial Councils of the Marist Provinces of Compostela and Mediterránea and with the approval of the Governing Board of the Pontifical University of Salamanca. Its series of coffee-colloquiums are intended to be an annual meeting on subjects related to the objectives of the Institute, where guests and participants can reflect, debate, give their opinions and encourage closeness, knowledge and the strengthening of common bonds.
