Education is inherent to the development of the human condition. Access to education requires spaces that promote culture and art to support the integral development of citizens. The right to be educated, and the obligation to educate is unavoidable in a society that claims to be civilized. That is, the human being, requires educational tools that allow him to fully develop his humanity. "Man is not totally man by the fact of being born, but by the fact of living and constantly re-creating his environment, man is not born, but made."

 

    On the other hand, individuals need education not only to subsist, but to develop a respectful life for themselves, and for their social environment. The interaction of human beings with each other is a fundamental element in the educational fact. In this socio-communicative process, one of the subjects has the capacity to influence the other and this, in turn, has the possibility of being influenced; always from respect and assertiveness to otherness.
