The pedagogical tour also included a visit to the Pontifical Catholic University and the Federico Santa Maria University. All of the above, as part of the Atacama Plan, which contemplates the coordination of 5 universities in the country to support education in the area. Senator Yasna Provoste thanked the commitment of the universities, which showed their facilities and benefits to the students. He stated that this experience means a window of opportunities, which allows them to continue advancing in their training. Social rights are not defended alone, they must be defended with force. For us it was very important not only to represent our region, but, as one always tells young people, maybe with me they are not going to get the best, but I know the doors that we have to open so that our young people from Atacama have a better future. In addition, the parliamentarian pointed out that the plan has been successfully applied in other high schools in the sector, such as the Manuel Magalhaes High School in Diego de Almagro and the Federico Varela High School in Chanaral. The president of the course and the student center at the Liceo Japan, Consuelo Palacios, appreciated the initiative and pointed out that coming from a super small town, without universities and with only one high school, they dont have many opportunities. Most of my classmates were very motivated to continue studying in higher education, because the campuses we visited had many things that caught our attention in our area. The opportunity is highly valued, we do not have this opportunity in Huasco. The head professor, Cristian Lopez, thanked Senator Provoste for coordinating the pedagogical tour, and stated that this opens a whole range of possibilities. It opens up a great opportunity for them to know that there are three universities that have programs that can lead them to meet their goals.
