There is a major concern within Coopeagri's analysis related to generational renewal: statistics show a growth in membership, but with an average age of 48 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is also an important problem in Costa Rica and in P\u00e9rez Zeled\u00f3n related to land and its use for agricultural activities. Land that parents give as inheritance to their children is increasingly sold to foreigners who show no interest in continuing agricultural activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mission of the \"Leaders of the Future\" programme is to train the future heirs of the cooperative: to try to ensure that the new generations see agriculture as a development option for their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Leaders of the Future\" is aimed at children aged 0-18 years. Most of them come from rural areas where coffee and sugar cane are produced. These families have agricultural activities as their only source of income, but with a very low production volume, which means that their basic needs are not covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The learning methodology is constructivist: children and young people learn cooperativism by participating in a real experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They work on values such as: leadership, loyalty, friendship, discipline, entrepreneurship, creativity, self-improvement, integration, love of family, community and nature. They also provide knowledge of social economy, environment, agriculture, languages, computers and art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As technology and information are nowadays the key tools, \"L\u00edderes del Futuro\" has included computer science and the Internet as priority topics in its training programmes and the Internet as priority topics. For this reason we have created this project, with the aim of generating a new generation of associates, with a link to the land and agriculture, but equipped with the tools to improve their quality of life.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":27229,"template":"","tipo-proyecto":[922],"class_list":["post-42484","proyecto","type-proyecto","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tipo-proyecto-proyectos-de-cooperacion"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
