Programa, Córdoba, Montería 28

Abstract

In the Voces y Regiones program, the Youth Entrepreneurship Laboratory in Bajo Antioquia is discussed as an initiative aimed at empowering young people and providing them with adequate education to professionalize in key areas for regional development. The program highlights the history of Bajo Antioqueño and Southern Córdoba, emphasizing how many young people migrate to larger cities in search of better educational opportunities due to the lack of attractive and relevant academic programs in their territories. Additionally, the role of Peace Councils is emphasized, as these spaces allow young people not only to participate but also to lead initiatives for peacebuilding and community strengthening. These councils foster dialogue, reconciliation, and the creation of opportunities for new generations, promoting a future with greater equity and stability in the region.
