As part of its commitment to strengthening strategic partnerships, the Popayán campus of Fundación Universitaria María Cano carried out a community-focused activity in collaboration with the Coprocenva Savings and Credit Cooperative, an allied organization with which it maintains an active cooperation agreement. During the activity, seventh-semester Physiotherapy students led a session for older adults, providing practical guidance on self-massage, stretching, and strengthening exercises, promoting healthy habits and body care.

This experience allowed students to integrate academic learning with real-world community engagement, strengthening their professional competencies while generating a positive impact on the quality of life of the participants. The initiative was developed in partnership with Coprocenva, a cooperative organization with a strong presence in southwestern Colombia, committed to improving the quality of life of its members and communities, and recognized as a key actor in social development processes.

Through initiatives like this, Fundación Universitaria María Cano reaffirms its commitment to social outreach, comprehensive education, and the development of partnerships that contribute to community well-being and regional progress.
