Experts from Cuba and Ecuador assess today the results of a cooperation agreement on comprehensive child development, as part of which Cuban professionals trained about 15,700 people from this South American nation.
 
The agreement between the Cuban Education Ministry and the Ecuadorian Economic and Social Inclusion Ministry allowed that island's staff provide here advice in the last few months, to contribute strengthening the public policy of comprehensive child development in zero to three children.
 
Sources in charge of organizing the event told Prensa Latina that the results of the joint activity will be discussed during today's meeting, in which about 405 workshops were developed, some 15,700 people were trained, and nearly 387 visits were carried out to Children's Centers of Good Living.
 
Representatives from both sides will also share some recommendations about the project, which involved training teachers and coordinators in issues as Comprehensive development stimulation, Nutrition, and Joint responsibility.
 
Monitoring results will be analyzed in the daily educational practice of the implementation of what they learned in training.
 
The Latin American Reference Center for Preschool Education was the Cuban institution responsible for that training.
