This Monday, May 6, young people from 17 countries began training at the Antonio José de Sucre International School of Youth Leadership. The opening class was led by the rector of the
institution, Héctor Rodríguez, who focused on the need to
empower young people with a vocation for leadership.
“For us
, leadership is closely related to the concept of power, but we must be careful not to confuse this tendency with that old vision
of individual, selfish power, of the logic of aspiring to office.
For us, communal power is the sum of wills,” he said.
He added that popular power in revolution has been
put to the test by allocating resources directly to
communities through the National Popular Consultation, the Government Plan
of the Seven Transformations (7T) and the Concrete Agenda for Action (ACA),
mechanisms through which citizens themselves decide the
destination of the resources allocated by the State for the development of
projects for collective benefit.
49 young leaders from
Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba,
Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay,
Peru, Dominican Republic and Palestine participate in this workshop.
