With the aim of promoting equitable, high-quality education through technology, the Latin American and Caribbean Energy Organization (OLACDE) and the Embassy of Uruguay in Ecuador joined efforts to provide computer equipment to the República del Uruguay Public School in Quito.
This interinstitutional contribution seeks to strengthen the school’s digital infrastructure, enabling modern learning methodologies for students while supporting teachers in the classroom.
The donation took place on May 18, coinciding with Uruguay’s commemoration of the Battle of Las Piedras. This historic occasion highlighted how technical and diplomatic cooperation can translate into tangible benefits for the social development of member countries.
The event was led by Andrés Rebolledo, Executive Secretary of OLACDE; Fernando Sandín Tusso, Ambassador of Uruguay; and Patricia Bonilla, Principal of the educational institution. During their remarks, the authorities emphasized that access to technology is a fundamental pillar for ensuring equal opportunities for future generations.
The event concluded with a cultural program organized by the students, who celebrated Latin American integration and identity through music and dance.
Through initiatives such as this, OLACDE complements its technical and energy agenda with a strong commitment to human development and community well-being across the region.
