Description:
The seedbed is part of the alliance between the Center for Thought for Political Education (CEP) of the National University of Colombia and the Center for Internet and Society of the University of Rosario - ISUR. This alliance, particularly through the Interuniversity Seedbed, will strengthen training processes of citizen political education from university settings and will allow the production of Open Educational Resources (OER) in a collaborative manner on the specific issues that emerge from collaborative inquiry; focusing on two political training subgroups focused on Mental and Community Health, and Social Protest.
General objective:
The general objective of the seedbed is to promote processes of political training of citizens in higher education settings that contribute to the consolidation of transformative practices and citizen participation for democracy.
Specific objectives:
