We signed a cooperation agreement with Duoc UC to continue training people in need of housing solutions

The Housing and City Network continues to grow, this time through an alliance between Duoc UC and Déficit Cero, who have signed an agreement to develop workshops for people who are part of the housing demand, providing them with tools to help their communities.

The workshops, which will be offered by Duoc UC through their program Duoc UC a Puertas Abiertas, will be held at the institution's facilities. These workshops, which will not lead to certification, are part of the "Housing and City Network" initiative by Déficit Cero, aiming to bridge the information gaps surrounding the housing access process and promote training and education in collaboration with universities and training centers.

Sebastián Bowen, Executive Director of Déficit Cero, stated that through this agreement, “we hope to make an impact on the communities seeking to access housing by training people who are part of the housing demand. These workshops will provide tools and knowledge that will allow participants to become agents of change in their territories.”

Claudio Duce, General Director of Admission, Communication, and Extension at Duoc UC, also commented, “As a higher education institution, we firmly believe that true comprehensive education must go beyond the classroom and make a real contribution to the community. This agreement reflects our commitment to bringing education closer to and enriching both our students and the general population by addressing relevant issues that concern society.”

With this agreement, Duoc UC and Déficit Cero reaffirm their commitment to collaborate in promoting training and education processes, creating various educational spaces in collaboration with universities and training centers.
