Programa de Trabajo Comunitario en las comunidades amigas de UDELAS: Logros y desafíos. Año 2017-2022

Abstract

Since 2015, when the process of implementation of
the UDELAS Strategic Plan 2014-2018 began, a stage
of consolidation of outreach work in territories
began, which closed its period with the approval
by the academic council of several regulations and
management tools of the Community Work Program
at UDELAS.
Based on the UDELAS Strategic Plan 2019-2023,
the task of developing the implementation of the
Community Work Model at UDELAS involves several
aspects. Goals of growth in the number of territories
to be served, integration of actions between the
substantive functions of public universities, teaching,
research and extension, in a work strategy, which
adjusts the role of the university as a whole, from a
less transfer-oriented linkage and more supportive
community accompaniment are contemplated.
This new relationship with social actors must have
characteristics of greater capacity to exchange
knowledge and establish relationships that allow us
to collectively create and implement new ideas of
human development for populations with high levels
of vulnerability. I understand that vulnerability can be
due to environmental, social, economic and violence
risks, which are generated by the levels of social
inequality in the country.
The document makes an analysis of the work route that
was undertaken since 2017, with the approval of the
Community Work Model, and that to date have results
that are necessary to evaluate from the point of view
of the management of the Community Work Program
in Friendly Communities of UDELAS and the Portfolio
of Community Projects, which attest to the activities
of community accompaniment in the territories.
