Nyligen deltog Dispurse tillsammans med andra viktiga organisationer i en workshop som organiserades av det peruanska utbildningsministeriet. Syftet med workshopen var att diskutera hur utvecklingen av digital utbildning kan främjas och generera lika möjligheter till lärande.
Workshopen fokuserade främst på digital litteracitet. Stiftelsen Dispurse deltog som expertorganisation, och blev inbjudna att delta då vi har stor erfarenhet och kunskap kring temat. Representanter från Ministeriet för utveckling och social integration (MIDIS), det Nationella telekommunikationsprogrammet, Ministeriet för främjande av arbete och sysselsättning, det peruanska Ministerrådet, transport- och kommunikationsministeriet, Instituto Apoyo, IPAE Asociación Empresarial och ExE var också närvarande.
The event organized by Es Hoy, DVV International and Dispurse Foundation highlighted the joint efforts of companies, municipalities, educational institutions and civil society to close the educational gaps in youth and adults. In a context where 1 in 3 people in Peru have not completed their basic education, this event highlighted the importance of education as a tool for transformation.
In commemoration of International Literacy Day, Dispurse Foundation joined the awareness parade held in the city of Cajamarca. This event brought together students, teachers, organizations and local authorities to highlight the importance of literacy in personal and community development.
