Millennium Fellowship Project: Unidos somos más
This is a project whose objective is to sensitize young people about machismo through training and continuing education through talks. The topics will cover content related to self-esteem, emotional intelligence, toxic relationships, human rights and basic finances, and will motivate them to study a career.
Those who will give the talks in the schools will be the students of the last years of the different universities of the country, of careers such as: Law, Psychology, Anthropology, Sociology, among other related careers. Universities can motivate the participation of these students through recognition and prizes, considering that most universities will opt for the proposal, since it will help them achieve prestige and recognition, and the project is aligned with the objectives of education and equality that every university should pursue.
