Puerto Montt (Chile).<\/strong> On 7 September 2022, the “Cultivable Patio” project (cultivable courtyard) was inaugurated at the Polytechnic Institute of Mary Help of Christians in Puerto Montt, in the St. Gabriel Archangel <\/em>Province (CIL), in collaboration with the “Patio Vivo” (Living Patio) Foundation, a non-profit foundation that works to transform school play areas into learning spaces.<\/p>\n

The project, in line with the objectives of the Laudato S\u00ec’ Initiative Platform<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, consists of a cultivable courtyard that involves the planting of 6 native trees of the area, a greenhouse, a vegetable garden, and a composter, used as an open classroom for students\u00a0\u00a0 training in \u2018Technical-Professional Gastronomy, with a specialization in cooking. Here the students will be able to grow and collect the ingredients for the foods they prepare, contributing to a healthy, sustainable, and traditional diet.<\/p>\n

This initiative, accompanied by a pedagogical program, aims to develop educational skills for the 21st<\/sup> century and promote students as agents of change in their families and communities.<\/p>\n
