It is also sought to imagine what Perus mining will be like in the next 20 years and how the knowledge of each region can boost a more sustainable mining.
Schoolchildren will be able to participate in one of the three Categories: i) Creativity, for schoolchildren from 4th grade to 3rd secondary school through an enlightened story, dramatized or mural story, ii) innovation, for students of the 4th and 5th secondary school, presenting an essay or model; and iii) on interculturality, presenting the previous formats in the original language.
