Fundacion Cisneros and Barrick Gold Corporation Create Alliance

The Fundacion Cisneros and Barrick Gold Corporation have announced a collaborative agreement to help improve education in Latin America, addressing one of the continent's most urgent needs. Working together, the two organizations will expand the reach of AME -- Actualizacion de Maestros en Educacion, or Professional Development for Educators -- the Fundacion's dynamic program devoted to improving the skills of teachers throughout Latin America.

  1. Very smart, this idea just flashing out when the new national school Curriculum was starting to take place, of course this new curriculum could be a new idea and proyect to be followed by other socialist nations.

    Now, for those groups and individuals who are making it hard for their own national curriculum to take the school desk place, and even more, by being democratically challenged on a possible electoral referendum, You must be out of your own mind if you think that the state is going to allow you to get the foot at door of a so called aid for improvement of teachers which later could turn out to be a private curriculum that nobody saw
    coming.

    Since this is the rise of the new era of the Socialism of the 21st Century in LatinAmerica and the rescue of all patriotic and Historical values, it urges nations to be aware that this "alliances" could be for expanding and promoting subjects, topics or a curriculum that are founded on a private learning system which focus and trigger mainly on the neo-agenda, Global "Economics" or Capitalist Market Economies which radically differs from Participatory Economics.

    see (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
    Participatory_economy)

    States of nations must continously reaffirm its autonomy on its own national Education system.
