Abstract
FREITAS, Gabriel; MELLO, Karolain; BESSONART, Martín and ESCOBAR, Jesica. Hacia la consolidación de un Espacio de Formación Integral sobre recursos naturales en la Región Noreste de Uruguay. Antecedentes y procesos en la cuenca del río Negro en el período 2002–2022. Rev. ext. univ. [online]. 2023, n.18, pp.7-7. ISSN 2346-9986.
For years, the University of the Republic, Uruguay, has proposed integral academic programs that combine teaching, research, and community engagement with an interdisciplinary perspective and territorial anchorage through the creation of Spaces for Integral Education. In the graduate program for Natural Resources at the University’s campus in Rivera, there is a search to construct an Space for Integral Education with a territorial focus on the Negro river, linked to research activities in interaction with local actors. The project builds on 10 years of experiences in the mentioned territory of interactions between the three functions which, although specific and partial, have strengthened academic and professional training and allowed for a more comprehensive approach to complex territorial problems. Consolidating an Space for Integral Education will involve integrating the functions coherently and sustainably, offering students a trajectory with specific training objectives and recognized curricular relevance, in harmony with the training objectives of the undergraduate program.
