.. DEMOCRATIC PARTICIPATION ..
An article from the Universidad Provincial de Córdoba (translation by CPNN)
Last Wednesday, June 14, the Open Chair for the Right to Peace and Coexistence in Diversity, of the Provincial University of Córdoba, held a conference on culture of peace and coexistence in diversity for the community of the City of Rio Primero.
How can culture of peace be developed at the municipal level?
This initiative was proposed by the mayor of the city, Cristina Cravero, and planned by the Coordinator of the University Chair, Maria Alba Navarro.
Members of the Río Primero community participated in the event: primary and secondary level teachers; firefighters, health professionals, justices of the peace, members of the municipal management team, among others.
The meeting and training space was proposed to address concepts related to the culture of peace and peaceful coexistence, ending with the creation of proposals aimed at improving coexistence in the community.
In addition, this initiative allowed the Municipality of Rio Primero to join REDIPAZ (Inter-institutional Network and People for Peace), to begin working in a coordinated manner with the various institutions and actors that make up the Network.
These activities allow the Provincial University of Córdoba to continue contributing to the construction of a Culture of Peace and more just, peaceful and inclusive societies.
