During the detailed period, we continued the implementation of the Scholarship Programme for Higher or University Education in the community of Simoca (Tucumán), with the aim of providing a comprehensive support that addresses the emotional and economic part, so that young people from rural communities can pass and complete their high school studies and develop their full potential.
In this period, we can highlight that one of our scholarship students, Jorge, graduated in Computer and Networking Technology, being the 4th scholarship student to complete his higher or university education in 2023.
In addition, during the month of December, two graduates, Jorge and Ayelén, were trained by members of the Google team in management and technology tools. The aim was for them to be able to replicate this locally in their community.
In addition to the comprehensive support provided to the students and the financial contribution of the scholarship, the boys and girls who are part of the programme developed their "Community Impact Project" during 2023. This involves them organising themselves to identify a need in the community and, based on this, designing a collective response to improve their local area. In the case of last year's project, they created a mural in a public space to raise awareness of the importance of education in rural areas of Argentina.
