In POLIS Academy for Political Education, we believe in the importance of open dialogue and the active participation of young people in shaping the future of Ecuador. With this spirit, we have launched the innovative project Connecting rod with Purposea series of workshops that brings together pre-presidential and youth leaders in a relaxed environment conducive to the exchange of ideas.
What is a connecting Rod with Purpose?
Connecting rod with Purpose is a series of meetings at which candidates to the Presidency of the Republic and other political actors sit down to talk with 20 representatives of Federations of Universities, Student Associations, and the various organizations of the academy, human rights, gender, among others. These workshops aim to foster a sincere and constructive dialogue on the challenges and opportunities facing our country.
Methodology and Process
Each session of Rod with Purpose is carefully organized to maximize the impact and productivity of the dialog. The young participants have the opportunity to ask questions, express their concerns and to submit their proposals directly to the candidates. After each discussion, our rapporteur collect all the proposals and prepares detailed reports, which will be used to construct a proposal juvenile concrete.

The project connecting Rod with Purpose began with success on the 13th of July of 2024, with the participation of the precandidata Andrea Gonzalez. Soon, we will count with the presence of other candidates such as Henry Cucalón, Luisa Gonzalez, and many more.
