For his part, Claudio Carreño, coordinator of the CIARA Foundation, in the entity, reported that to date 16 training workshops have been held, addressing topics such as “My School Conuco” and “Designs of Agrourban Spaces”, through the Carlos Lanz National Training Program, and seeks to promote an agro-urban and ecosocialist conception, based on respect for the rights of Mother Earth and the well-being of the population.
