Fundaci\u00f3n Universitaria Mar\u00eda Cano, Popay\u00e1n Campus, through its Specialization in Public Health, continues to strengthen its commitment to social development, community participation, and the creation of healthier environments by consolidating strategic partnerships with social and community stakeholders across the Department of Cauca.<\/p>\n
As part of this commitment, the institution held a working meeting with community leaders from Commune 7 in Popay\u00e1n. This dialogue and collaborative planning space was designed to strengthen citizen participation processes and advance the organization of the Second National Congress on Community-Based Primary Health Care, an academic and social event aimed at promoting the exchange of knowledge, successful experiences, and innovative strategies for strengthening public health from a territorial perspective.<\/p>\n
The meeting provided an opportunity to identify new avenues for collaboration between academia and local communities, recognizing the essential role of community leaders in promoting healthy lifestyles, preventing disease, and driving initiatives that contribute to collective well-being. Participants also established joint actions to ensure that the Congress becomes a platform where community experiences play a leading role in developing solutions to current public health challenges.<\/p>\n
This event represents a valuable opportunity to showcase community-led initiatives, strengthen social leadership capacities, and encourage knowledge exchange among healthcare professionals, higher education institutions, social organizations, government agencies, and citizens. In this context, Primary Health Care emerges as a key strategy for advancing more human-centered, participatory healthcare models focused on the real needs of communities.<\/p>\n
For Fundaci\u00f3n Universitaria Mar\u00eda Cano, partnerships such as these reflect the essence of its institutional mission by promoting education committed to social transformation and positive territorial impact. Through its Specialization in Public Health, the institution continues to contribute knowledge, leadership, and technical expertise to strengthen community-based processes that improve quality of life and support sustainable regional development.<\/p>\n
Through initiatives like this, Mar\u00eda Cano reaffirms its role as a strategic ally of communities and healthcare stakeholders, fostering spaces for education, research, and social outreach that contribute to building collective solutions to public health challenges in Cauca and across Colombia.<\/p>\n
