During Friday morning, Mayor Francisco Azcué led the signing of a cooperation agreement between the Municipality of Concordia and the NGO “Volando Alto”, which will allow for the increase of education workshops and programs, and everything concerning personal development and social and human promotion in the city.
Based on this agreement, resources will be provided to the NGO “Volando Alto” so that it may continue to fulfill its social development objectives with the following programs:
-Literacy and Mathematics Program.
-Digital Literacy Program.
-Integral Growth Program, which includes the areas of Emotional Education, Comprehensive Sex Education, Art Therapy, and Healthy Eating.
-Languages.
-Empowerment Opportunities Program for Mothers and Fathers.
Likewise, the NGO commits to the opening of new programs aimed at providing tools that allow beneficiaries to take advantage of future opportunities, such as the Robotics School at the La Bianca and Benito Legerén Opportunity Development Centers.
TOOL FOR TRANSFORMATION
Mayor Francisco Azcué highlighted the signing, as it represents, on one hand, “working in an articulated manner with intermediate institutions and promoting citizen participation” and on the other, having education “as a tool for transformation, which is the most powerful asset we have to change reality, providing the people of Concordia with tools so they can develop and grow”.
For their part, the NGO expressed their satisfaction in being able to move forward with said agreement “to be able to reach more children in the city. We have been working for five years so that they can have more opportunities, and this step means a huge help because it represents being able to spread our wings further and fly higher”.
“Volando Alto” is a Civil Association with more than five years of experience in education programs in informal learning environments. They believe in education as a fundamental tool for social transformation. Their mission is to build opportunities through education, so that each individual can be the author of their own human promotion. They create learning spaces where children, youth, and adults can acquire the necessary tools for building a dignified life, improving themselves day by day through various workshops.
The Special Unit for Strategic Projects collaborated on this connection, which also shares with said NGO the 2024 Local Innovators Project (PIL) of the Local Innovation Network (RIL), in which local government leaders and social entrepreneurs work together to design innovative solutions for the challenges of their cities.
Present were the Undersecretary of the Special Unit for Strategic Projects Leandro Garbarino and, for the NGO “Volando Alto”, Florencia Martínez, Franco Bollini, and Felicitas Silva.
