With the presence of our president and second candidate for National Deputy for the Province of Buenos Aires for Fuerza Patria, Ms. Jimena López, the second cohort of the continuing education course “Puerto Quequén, an interdisciplinary perspective” began this Saturday morning.
The course will be held over six four-hour sessions on Saturdays and is aimed at teachers of all levels and modalities, as it addresses the port from a cross-disciplinary perspective.
During these sessions, various port-related topics will be addressed, organized into five axes: the port and its history, the consortium as a governance body, the productive network, infrastructure and the port-city link, the environment, and port wildlife.
Jimena emphasized that “education is central to us” because “we have to invest in development conditions, from free teacher training to those in the teaching profession.”
She stressed the need to work to ensure that more and more teachers can “access the technical knowledge offered by the port, to understand what we’re talking about when we talk about localized production, which is the agro-export chain, which is a port, and then work on more abstract concepts such as the free navigability of rivers or sovereignty, which is so fraught today.”
The continuing education course is part of the “The Port Goes to School” program, an initiative of Jimena’s, and is complemented by educational materials developed for teaching purposes, open courses for higher education students, vocational training workshops, and professional and training practices for various levels and modalities, among other initiatives.
