The program 'Creciéndote' that the Popular University of the City of Cartagena launched last year, in collaboration with the University of Murcia, has been accepted as oral communication at the 4th International Congress of Clinical and Health Psychology on Children and Adolescents, It was held from 15 to 17 November in Palma de Mallorca.

As indicated by the director of the UP, José Macián, it is an Emotional Intelligence project created and developed by the UP that in its pilot program "was offered to a total of 10 AMPAS of educational centers of Cartagena and region and in which it has been discovered that the previous level of emotional intelligence is determinant and that this program is more beneficial, for people with little or too much emotional intelligence and scant clarity and emotional repair ".

For the Councilor for Culture, David Martínez Noguera, "the goal of the UP with this project is to provide mothers and fathers of students of Cartagena Primary and Secondary with enough tools to develop emotional intelligence both in themselves and in education of his daughters and sons.

We are happy to say that this objective has been fulfilled, and hosted in prestigious international meetings, fulfilling our maxim of doing but with quality and proven effectiveness ".

The program is framed in the offer of UP courses since last year and is taught by specialized psychologists, thus ensuring quality training.

It is organized in three blocks, with two sessions each of about an hour, so it lasts more than twelve hours.

The psychologists moved to the places and times requested by the AMPAS, continuing with the premise of the UP to bring culture to neighborhoods and the daily reality of citizenship.

During the congress, the heads of the Popular University had the opportunity to present the improvements obtained from the participants of the program, through objective tests Trait-Meta Mood Scale (TMMS24) made at the beginning and at the end of the program.
