Community Development
Community development is defined by the UN as a process aimed at creating conditions for economic and social progress for the entire community, with its active participation, and the greatest possible confidence in its own initiatives.
In communities, the central activity is economic activity, but alongside it, and as an essential part of development, are social needs, such as education, health, culture, sports, recreation and others.
​
As an extension of our work, the Engagement Foundation carries out development activities to promote the satisfaction of these needs, and the improvement in the lifestyle of various Latin American communities.
At Engagement Foundation we work to build strong and integrated communities, promoting local initiatives that address the social problems of each entity to achieve its maximum potential.
