Thanks to the &#8220;Project Management&#8221; workshop, they have been able to strengthen the knowledge and skills of children and young people between 13-25 years old so that they can have an economic, social, and academic impact on their environment through their entrepreneurial ideas. These ideas are being developed to be launched at the achievement fair at the end of this year. The activities were conducted under the scope of the project and were made possible by<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pmi.org\/pmi-educational-foundation\/about-us\"> PMIEF (Project Management Institute Educational Foundation)<\/a>. With the development of this workshop, teachers and facilitators have been trained to deliver the 12 Project Management sessions to young people, so that they can apply project management to their daily, academic, and professional lives. The goal is to create a long-lasting positive impact on society, starting with each of their families and communities. Fundaci\u00f3n Gloria de Kriete &#8211; Programa Oportunidades is dedicated to supporting young people facing economic constraints, aiming to increase opportunities for social inclusion and personal success. Through strategic alliances and innovative programmes, they empower youth to transform their lives and
