Drafting FIDAL

.

.

The IV Module of the CFF included young leaders from Andean countries

.

With nine young people from Peru and Bolivia, members of the leadership programs of the Hanns Seidel Foundation in South America, together with the country's scholarship recipients on Friday, August 24, the IV Module of the Leadership School of the Training Center for the Future started. .

.

In this meeting, cultural exchange and knowledge about the current Ecuadorian political context prevailed, so that, in this way, the young guests can get closer to a more real vision of what Ecuador is.

.

Oscar Montero gave two classes on Political Theory; the politician César Montúfar gave a talk on how to confront and fight against corruption; the economist Mauricio Pozo explained the future prospects of the national economy. Other political figures also joined in, such as María Paula Romo with the topic entitled "Ecuador: State of Law and Justice" and the Secretary of Youth, Elías Tenorio, addressed a dialogue table on young people and politics.

.

Part of the Leadership School focuses a lot on entrepreneurship and communication, so Marcos Vega, director of the Prendho Program, and Claudia Arteaga, executive director of FIDAL, explained these issues from their experiences, respectively.

.

The IV Module did not leave aside the cultural space: the young scholars made artistic interventions to share the traditions of Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia; they delighted their palate with a tasting of Café Minerva, and visited the Patio de Comedias, where the play “Marujas entre Tereques” was presented.

.

The School of Leadership is reaching its final stage. In the next module, the young leaders will meet in the city of Guayaquil
