In June 2021, the Juntos por Chocó alliance and the Mayor’s Office of Condoto opened the doors of UBUNTU, an art and culture center for young people where in the last 12 months more than 600 young people from the municipality have found a space full of opportunities to find a better future for themselves and their families.
In the months following UBUNTU’s inauguration, the center was provided with audio, video and computer equipment, art supplies, musical instruments, furniture, uniforms and toys so that the young people could carry out their activities there and receive training in creative industries.
From the moment it opened its doors, this art and culture center became the space where dance, music, film, photography and any artistic expression that young people needed to satisfy their interest in art and the innate talent that characterizes the people of Chocó converge.
In the coming months we will conduct workshops in art, illustration, social media management, audiovisual production, entrepreneurship and social innovation and training in peaceful coexistence for teachers.
TAAP Foundation and all the allies of Juntos x Chocó continue betting on the growth of art and culture as a means to offer young people the opportunity to build their own future and create new paths for their community.
