As part of its ongoing commitment to social development and improving the quality of life of the communities in its area of influence, Drummond Ltd. celebrated the closing of the sixth class of its Literacy Project, in partnership with Comfacesar. This year the program certified 200 people from the municipalities of Becerril and Agust\u00edn Codazzi. To date, there are already 3,200 fewer illiterate people in Cesar, thanks to the program. <\/p>\n\n

“We support programs like Alfabet\u00edzate because we believe in the power of education to transform the lives of communities. These projects strengthen the intellectual, emotional, and economic development of the participants, contributing to the integral well-being of families. We are committed to a more prosperous and sustainable future,” said Amal\u00ed Blanco Boh\u00f3rquez, CSR project coordinator at Drummond Ltd.<\/p>\n\n

For approximately 10 months, participants completed cycles one and two of their pedagogical process, acquiring the necessary tools to improve their reading and writing skills. This program not only contributes to people’s literacy, but also strengthens their self-esteem and their ability to actively integrate into their communities. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
