On February 26th, at the Fusagasugá headquarters, the dialogue meeting for the construction of the 2020-2023 Development Plan was held with the participation of 139 teachers from different disciplinary areas and 151 students belonging to the academic program Bachelor's Degree in Basic Education with Emphasis in Physical Education, Recreation and Sports.

“This guiding plan focuses on each one of us; the individual is the driving force, the essence of this model is being. The process is formative, constructive, social, and dialogical, in which we all learn from each other. Therefore, education is understood from the perspective of collaborative and co-creative knowledge, in which the entire university community participates., the rector affirmed during the closing remarks of the day with students and teachers.
