Objetivos clave de la medida:
During the period 2015-2016, Ecuador promoted four major lines of work. It should be noted that actions identified are exclusively for young people, which leaves out various programs and plans addressed to general public and therefore also young beneficiaries.
Lines of work:
1. Training, work and entrepreneurship
Creative writing laboratories: literacy program that seeks the empowerment of reading skills through the creation of literary and narrative texts in the Senplades zones 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.
2. Social Acting, participation and volunteering
Meetings developed in Ecuadorian provinces of young cultural managers to define local needs and proposals for the cultural sector.
- “Chimbacalle: an organization project for art, culture and citizen security", an inter- institutional project to deal with organizational aspects of the Ciudadela El Recreo neighborhood, the fabric of collective memory, community work, as well as training of cultural movements. Development of the national graffiti contest: “Al tren en latas”.
