Project Report | Apr 27, 2026
Social report first quarter of 2026

By Andres Velez | Executive director

This first four months of the year, we began by presenting our technical and university scholarship programs to young people in the municipality of Salgar. More than 200 students joined us for this event, where we explained the benefits, requirements, registration process, and important dates for our scholarships.

In our complementary program, "SkillsLab," we have held three sessions: the first was a creative writing workshop with a renowned writer from the country; the second was an artificial intelligence workshop with an emphasis on academic processes; and the third was a meditation workshop. We hope to hold a fourth session in May, where we will visit the studios of visual artists in the city of Medellín.

The five technical scholarship recipients who began their studies at CESDE and the music scholarship recipient from EAFIT University have adapted well to their training programs and are showing excellent academic progress in these first months of their first semester.

And the most emotional event: attending the graduation ceremony of our first two graduates.
