Five Catalan Universities launched their eParticipation portals on 1 June 2012, as part of the MyUniversity project and will run in pilot phase until the end of MyUniversity project.

MyUniversity project announced the launch of these five new MyUniversity eParticipation portals in addition to the nine initial portals that were launched in September 2011, in an ongoing effort to provide university members and the local, national and EU stakeholders in the higher education system a chance to be a part of a decision - making process.

The eParticipation portals correspond to five Catalan Universities, namely, the Autonomous University of Barcelona, the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, the University of Barcelona, the University of Girona and the University of Lleida.

MyUniversity project has actually provided a total of 14 eParticipation portals, one for each of the 14 participating universities. These 14 end-user universities and the website address of their eParticipation portals are:
