On Tuesday morning, Mayor Francisco Azcué was at School No. 77 “Presidente Néstor Kirchner,” where he delivered furniture manufactured through a training program developed between the Municipality of Concordia and the Center for Forest Industrial Development (CEDEFI).
It was within the framework of the “Learn to Assemble Office Furniture from Panels” course, implemented by the Secretariat of Productive Development, which featured the collaboration of the companies Bourlot Maderas & Herrajes and EGGER, who donated the materials so that the trainees could carry out the activities freely and at no cost.
PARADIGM SHIFT
While speaking, Mayor Azcué highlighted that this action responds to an initiative “that has to do with this paradigm shift that we advocate, which is to move away from welfarism and transition to a model in which the State provides tools so that people can be part of the system and develop themselves.”
“This furniture was made by people who, before joining this project, perhaps did not know how to do it, and today here are the results. We want to end the idea that the State is going to give you everything or that things are achieved by magic; that no longer works,” emphasized Azcué.
PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
The Secretary of Productive Development, Federico Schattenhofer, for his part, expressed his satisfaction with the results achieved, as this follows “an imprint given to us by Mayor Azcué, to achieve integrated work between the public and private sectors, together with intermediate associations.”
This is the product of “an action where education, training, production, and solidarity converge,” he remarked.
The delivery ceremony was attended by the school's principal, Silvia Alejandra Fernández, teachers, students, and representatives of the companies Bourlot Maderas & Herrajes and EGGER.
