Mauricio Macri launched a foundation, which bears his name, from which he promotes programs on education, amid the controversy over the return to face-to-face classes during the 2021 school year.
The former president took advantage of the launch to join the opposition claim for the return of face-to-face classes: "The damage caused to the students is unforgivable and perhaps irreparable," he said.
Among the areas of work of the
Mauricio Macri Foundation
, the item
"Education for the future" stands out
, from which a look "to the future" is proposed, as well as preparing "our young people for the challenges of a world in constant change" .
In this framework, they will carry out the
"educational leadership program"
to train "directors and directors of schools at all levels", which was born as part of the Network of Learning Schools implemented by María Eugenia Vidal in the Province.
Days ago, the former President published an open letter through social networks to ask that "schools be opened", in addition to questioning the Government and the teachers' unions for opposing the presence.
And he harshly questioned the Executive: "We are not like this because of the pandemic.
We are like this because of the inexperience of the government
that made a sequence of wrong decisions on almost all issues that
made us lose a full year of schools
. The damage caused to the students is unforgivable and perhaps irreparable. "
Congratulations @mauriciomacri for the new initiative to work for a quality future education for all!

After the announcement by Horacio Rodríguez Larreta of the return to the classroom for February 17 and the union resistance, from the PRO and Together for Change they came out to ask that the return be guaranteed.
In this framework, the foundation of the former president of Cambiemos will formally present the plan to provide tools to school directors.
Then it will be the turn of the
"Argentine Teachers"
plan
, which "rewards innovative educational projects that during 2020 managed to successfully sustain educational continuity."
There are many former presidents who take refuge in Congress to obtain jurisdiction and judicial immunity.
And there is a single former president who from the plains set up a foundation to improve the education of our young people.

In addition to education, it will also target "
Innovation with social impact
, supporting entrepreneurs, projects and initiatives that promote the use of technology to improve people's quality of life."
And "
Climate change
and environment, promoting sustainable development and environmental education as pillars for caring for the environment."
