Impulso Universitario supports youth in socioeconomic vulnerability conditions in Yucatan so they access and remain in their university studies. With the project, we want to back up 4 young students of our more than 200 students on their way to becoming Agents of Change and university graduates. We invite people to support our efforts to provide financial aid to our Youth. Through aid and the complementary programs of the organization, we make access and permanence in higher education possible.
Access to higher education in Yucatan is limited for young people in positions of disadvantage. Only 1 or 2 out of every ten students get the opportunity to study in universities. Even those with access later struggle with their permanence as they face several economic and social barriers leading to early academic drop-out. The project will address this by supporting our four youths through financial aid, tutoring, and a comprehensive training program.
Our intervention model seeks to directly impact young people's academic and human trajectories through various benefits, such as a personalized financial aid amount, a comprehensive training program, tutoring, psychological and pedagogical support, and an employment linkage program. We deliver resources to each young student every month of the year during their complete university studies. The intention is for them to cover educational expenses such as tuition, transport, or school supplies.
We intend to give young people tools to pursue their university studies and develop skills for personal, professional, and social life. Our mission is to help students complete their education while training them as Agents of Change with a social conscience sensitized to their environment's needs. For 25 years, we have taught students to generate concrete actions for improving livelihoods and their communities in the long term through their own projects and activities.
