The proposal will also include the creation of an independent commission composed of professors and official chroniclers of the city who make a agenda with the most notable historical events
The MC Cartagena municipal group, through its councilman Ricardo Segado, will present a motion at the next plenary session to urge the local government, and specifically its youth councilor, to create a new program aimed at teaching the history of the city in the secondary education centers of the municipality.
In this way, the cartagenerista formation will request that a nominative game for that purpose be included in the Budget of the year 2018.
In this sense, Segado recalled that this is one of the initiatives that the Municipal Government of MC had prepared to launch with the objective of "bringing students the history of our three-year-old city, key in specific and transcendent moments of Spain "
Independent commission composed of professors and chroniclers
Said program would be composed of didactic materials and historical documentation duly accomplished and filtered by experts, professors of the subject and official chroniclers of Cartagena.
All coordinated by technicians of the councils of Youth and Education of the City Council.
For this, the MC proposal will include the creation of an independent and apolitical commission whose task would be to elaborate the agenda with the most outstanding episodes.
Likewise, it is required that, once the program attached to the Youth Council is created, talks, conferences, seminars or initiatives are also held that remember the aforementioned commission.
A story worthy of being known
Deepening the need for this program, Ricardo Segado has pointed out that "MC is missing that this whole story is explained more extensively, given its importance, in the books that are used regularly in secondary schools. the information is clearly insufficient in all the institutes of the national territory, but in a more unjustified way if it fits in those of the own municipality of Cartagena ".
According to Segado, this educational deficiency causes that at present "our young people do not know, in most cases, the history of the city where they were born and where they live, which is an inconvenience to understand, for example, our local festivals as Carthaginians and Romans or the Friday of Sorrows ".
Commitment of the City Council with the dissemination of our history
Finally, the councilor of MC has said that with this measure "the City would commit to the history of its municipality, framed in the history of Spain since its founding, seeking the objectivity and consensus of all members who make up the commission" .
