Project Report | Aug 29, 2023
Sociocultural integration activity for kids

By Luciana Palacio | Project Leader

ACDI designed “Bridges in Education” Initiative, a program to offer cultural activities to impact the increase in motivation and academic performance of students. Thus, we organized a ceramic creation workshop for more than 70 students from Santa Fe.

With these activities, ACDI wants to improve the social and emotional skills of students, promote their comprehensive training, their cognitive, emotional and social development, increasing motivation, self-esteem and the sense of belonging to the school.

Cultural activities can improve students' social and communication skills, and it could influence their performance in school and their ability to face future challenges. This educational offer generates greater interest in higher education and even increases the chances of future success in job performance.

At the community level, “Bridges in Education” initiative seeks to strengthen the relationship between the educational institution and the community through the organization and joint development of workshops. It also generates that the people involved can acquire a greater appreciation and understanding of different cultures and forms of expression. In addition, these workshops can promote respect and tolerance towards cultural diversity, which can improve coexistence in communities.

Within this framework, we developed a ceramics workshop for 70 students from two schools in Santa Fe: the proposal was “Poetic in mud. Experiences in Ceramics”.

From a point of view that values the traditional ceramics of the original peoples, within the framework of the claim of these peoples in the year that Santa Fe City celebrates its 450th anniversary, an attempt is made to bring children closer to the worldview of these cultures to understand the bond they had with the raw material, the clay, the ways in which they worked it and what they manifested through their ceramic productions.

On the first day, those attending the workshop worked on the creation of pieces, and for the second meeting, they carried out the creation of a ceramic mural on a school space. This collective intervention seeks to promote the appropriation and care of the common spaces of the school building.
