Abstract
This proposal outlines the establishment of the Participation and Popular Education Centre in Nicaragua. It highlights the transformative efforts in literacy and education initiated by the Ministry of Education post-1979. The Centre is envisioned as a catalyst for educational excellence and development, designed to empower citizens through participatory programs that address the country's socioeconomic inequities. It emphasizes innovative approaches, such as integrating local development into educational programs, decentralizing curriculum, and combining formal and non-formal education systems.
