Chef mothers and fathers are protagonists of education in Venezuela and of continuing training in times of pandemic and economic war, said the Minister of Education, Héctor Rodríguez, this Thursday.

During a meeting with Cook Mothers and Fathers in the context of the tenth anniversary of the School Food Corporation (CNAE), at the Teatro Bolívar in Caracas, Rodríguez emphasized: “I saw that beautiful effort that you were making, and there you won my heart, so where I have been, I always talk about a deep love with the cooking mothers of this country, I want to thank you.”

Also, according to a press release from the Education portfolio, he recalled that even when schools closed their doors due to COVID-19, the kitchens for boys, girls, even the community, did not stop.

“A very difficult situation came, education stopped and we said: but what do we do with children who have no way to eat, and all the schools stopped working except the school kitchens. The mothers said: we are going to keep cooking,” she recalled.

For her part, the spokeswoman for the Front of Cook Mothers Fernanda Bolaños, Johana Berroterán, stressed that in the difficult times that the country is experiencing as a result of the coercive and unilateral measures imposed by the United States, and with the present challenges, the work carried out by cooking mothers becomes more important.
