The project of this student from Cartagena also includes a pedestrian itinerary along the regenerated Monte Sacro and recovers the traces of the old neighborhood respecting the visibility of the hill.
External educational agents and opening of the educational center during non-school hours for use by neighbors is the method that the student defines as “intergenerational and intercultural” and that she proposes so that schoolchildren “get involved in the nearby community,” Marta Muoz argues. , who remembers that “the historic center is, next to La Aljorra, the neighborhood with the greatest needs for school places in the municipality”
“The future is children, who must learn to be free, and education is a fundamental pillar for society that needs to be constantly changing, for which a profound review of our current education system is required,” he considers the newly titled .
