The María Cano University Foundation in the city of Cali, continues to be committed to the program of the municipal administration of dialogue and agreement with the young people of that region of the day, where the inhabitants of the different communes present their proposals, projects, ideas and requirements. that allow the generation of new opportunities to be made visible and heard by the different government agents, so that new strategies of inclusion, participation and development of their potential are generated.

These days of dialogue, which have the support of different organizations, including higher education institutions, are included in the Municipal Youth Platform, of which the Citizen Participation Subsystem is part, contemplated in the Youth Laws 1622 of 2013 and 1885 of 2018 that establish, among other things, spaces for youth participation for the generation of development and action plans, where all members of the community feel heard and valued.
