The proliferation of private universities in Spain is linked to the efforts of ultraconservative organizations to impose their ideological agenda. These organizations seek to counter liberal thought and have been actively establishing educational institutions that align with their views. Notably, the Heritage Foundation, a prominent American institution that promotes ultraconservative theories, is organizing an immigration debate targeted specifically at an audience in Spain, reflecting the international reach of these ideologies.

The Heritage Foundation's initiatives are not limited to Spain, as they are also engaged in activities across Latin America and Europe. Recent events, such as a meeting hosted by the Political Network for Values in Brussels, which included high-profile attendees like the elected president of Chile, illustrate the push to expand the far-right agenda associated with the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement. This effort is backed by substantial financial resources and aims to foster networks that can disseminate ultraconservative views globally.

This growing influence of private universities, particularly those with ultraconservative foundations, raises concerns about the potential impact on educational content and societal values in Spain. As these institutions may propagate a narrow ideological perspective, there is an ongoing debate about the implications for liberal democracy and pluralism, highlighting the need for awareness and response to such developments in the educational landscape.
