Thanks to the National Training Plan La
Comuna es Joven 2025, a total of 350 young people from different states of the country actively
participated in decision-making and in the development of
projects in their territories.
In this regard, the president of the School
for the Strengthening of Popular Power (EFPP), Atahualpa Lara, stressed that
creating a sense of belonging and empowering youth to promote the
new model of the Communal State constitutes one of the main objectives of this training plan.
He also indicated that this initiative,
promoted in August 2024 by the President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro,
through the Ministry of Popular Power for Communes,
Social Movements and Urban Agriculture, “allowed young people between 13 and 30 years of
age to debate, reflect and analyze everything from economic and social
issues to specific political conjunctures.”
He explained that the state of Barinas registered the
highest participation in the courses of the Plan La Comuna es Joven. In addition, she specified
that, with the support of the Landless Movement (MST) of Brazil and the
Community Union, theoretical and practical contents linked to: Community Horizon,
Communal Feminism, Internationalism, History of the Revolution, Internationalist
Youth, History of Agriculture and the Seven Great Transformations were designed.
He also highlighted that since 2024
to date, seven advances of the Plan have been carried out in the states of Lara,
Barinas, Guárico, Monagas and Apure, which has made it possible to raise the level of political and ideological
awareness of the participants, as well as to
strengthen their active incorporation into social projects aimed at improving living
conditions in their communes and the construction of 21st century socialism.
He pointed out that during the training process, community
youth deepened their knowledge of ethics as a
democratic and sovereign exercise, oriented to autonomy, social justice and the
common good, based on community participation and organization, as well as
on essential values such as transparency and honesty.
“Likewise, everything related to
the communal economy was addressed, an essential tool for promoting production from
the territory and where participants learn to make
territorial diagnoses, recognize productive systems and detect opportunities to
promote self-management. Likewise, we worked on identity and symbolism,
a topic that connects with our roots, history and sense of belonging,
” he explained.
