Centro de Generación y desarrollo del conocimiento Chos Malal

Abstract

The city of Chos Malal, located in the North of the province of Neuquén, Argentina, faces significant challenges in terms of accessibility and quality of higher education. Despite being a central node for educational activities in the region, the existing infrastructure is not sufficient to meet the growing demand of students. This deficit not only affects formal education, but also the availability of trade workshops and other forms of non-formal and informal education. The region depends largely on productive activities, especially agriculture and goats. However, the lack of education and training limits the potential for socioeconomic development of the inhabitants. In this context, the need arises for a comprehensive education center that not only addresses educational deficiencies, but also promotes economic development through innovation and training. This project proposes the creation of a Comprehensive Education Center in the city of Chos Malal, which covers both formal, non-formal and informal education, as well as promoting economic and social development by creating new opportunities for the population.
