The commitment of Gustavo Bolívar, director of the Department of Social Prosperity (DPS) of Colombia, to educational transformation has taken a bold and transcendental turn. During his visit to Finca El Toro in Codazzi, Cesar, Bolívar directly faced the challenging reality that rural children face: walking up to 12 kilometers a day to access education. This situation is not only physically exhausting, but also exposes children to dangers along the way.

Faced with this panorama, Bolívar has not only promised a solution, he has launched a challenge! He publicly committed to working with the Mayor’s Office to build a school within Finca El Toro within a maximum period of six months. This initiative would not only seek to provide accessible and safe education, but also “symbolizes a firm commitment to the development and progress of rural communities,” said the former senator.
Bolívar announced a revolution in the strategy to support vulnerable communities, promoting community association and the development of productive projects. This proactive and transformative approach aligns with the Gustavo Petro Government’s vision of eradicating poverty through economic empowerment and collective collaboration. Bolívar’s visit to Codazzi also marked the beginning of the second peasant market and services fair, highlighting the importance of community participation, entrepreneurship and support for local initiatives.
On the other hand, Bolívar’s strategy of announcing this promise publicly and through the media raised questions among Internet users about his true intentions. Are you really looking to solve a problem or are you using this situation to gain popularity and project a positive image? were some of the comments after what the Director of Social Prosperity said.
