The National Experimental University of the Arts (UNEARTE) maintains a link with communities through artistic projects developed by its students, an experience that also allowed the activation of brigades to attend to those affected by the earthquakes of June 24.

This was reported by the rector of the institution, Ignacio Barreto, who explained that during their academic training, students must develop one or more multidisciplinary community artistic projects that integrate disciplines such as dance, music, theater and audiovisual arts.

“They create that project and they develop it over time and that's how they have that dialogue with the different communities and understand community logic,” Barreto said .

In this context, after the seismic movements, UNEARTE formed 19 brigades comprised of 180 students, teachers and workers, who were deployed in temporary camps to provide care to affected people through activities related to the arts.
