UPM FOUNDATION GROWING TOGETHER IN THE INTERIOR

As part of the Foundation’s work, we support projects and promote scholarships for training programmes throughout the interior of the country. All projects are headed by leading organizations in their fields.

A board of directors made up of five members meets every two months to evaluate and approve new proposals that are presented, as well as to oversee the use of the budget and monitor the progress of projects that have already been implemented.

In the last few years the UPM Foundation has awarded scholarships to more than 1,300 educators from some 150 communities in the interior of the country. These were for different teacher training programmes on topics such as Management and Leadership, Inclusion, Socio-emotional Skills and Pedagogical Training.

AN OPEN CALL FOR PROPOSALS

We have an open call all throughout the year to receive proposals in education and community development. Those people or institutions interested can send their proposals to our email: fundacion@upm.com
