Multidisciplinary applied research combined with modern educational approaches represent a powerful tool for seeking and developing tailor-made solutions that improve the living conditions of broad sectors of the population of Central America, thus reducing their needs to migrate.
In this stud, wey combine modern applied research methodologies, i.e. Nanotechnologies, with a multidisciplinary, problem-solving approach to education, i.e. the STEM methodology, to seek innovative and sustainable solutions to basic needs such as safe water, food security, refrigeration and school violence reduction.
Based on the encouraging results obtained, we propose the creation of a Central American network of Applied Research Colleges, dedicated to developing innovative solutions, based on available local materials and resources, to solve basic and specific needs of the populations of each region.
