📋 Tender Overview
With the objective of strengthening a relevant education and with regional identity, the Regional Government of Arequipa, through the Education Management, developed from June 30 to July 2 a technical day with the Ministry of Education (MINEDU) and the 10 units of local educational management (UGEL), to advance in the implementation of the diversified regional curriculum (CRD).
During three days of collaborative work, a regional pedagogical network was consolidated committed to improving learning from a located perspective, recognizing the cultural, social and geographical diversity of Arequipa. The General Directorate of Regular Basic Education (DIGEBR) of the MINEDU accompanied the process providing specialized technical assistance.
One of the central moments was the signing of the Act of Commitment by the directors of UGEL, marking the formal beginning of the implementation of CRD. Likewise, the work route was presented and validated, together with the participatory review of territorial diagnostic matrices, evaluated with criteria of coherence, relevance and quality. This review allowed to identify strengths, needs and educational problems in each province.
The technical teams of the UGEL and the CRD regional team shared their experiences in the elaboration of the diagnoses, highlighting the work articulated with local actors, and also the challenges faced, such as the shortage of updated bibliography, limitations of time for labor overload and lack of scientific information in some cases.
In the following days a participatory methodology was applied to prioritize regional educational demands. The result was the identification of 15 concrete pedagogical demands: 10 own, 3 of regional scope and 2 shared by several jurisdictions. These were translated in pedagogical guidelines oriented to competencies, transverse approaches and curricular areas, aligned to the regional context.
This process represents a significant advance towards a more contextualized, inclusive and quality education. The joint work between the Regional Education Management, Minedu, DGP and the UGEL shows that the institutional articulation is essential to build a curriculum that truly responds to the needs and potentialities of the Arequipa territory.
