Continuing their preparation prior to the Latin American Innovation Rally 2020, the 32 students who will represent URACCAN campus Las Minas received a workshop on stress management, by teacher Vania Chavarría Vigil, responsible for Student Welfare and psychologist in this university residence.

Students, at the level of the venue and including their extensions of Rosita, Bonanza and Waslala, have received different trainings that will allow them to develop the skills and tools necessary to solve the challenges of the Rally, said Félix Aráuz, president of UNEN in Las Minas.

We know that in the Rally, on October 2 and 3, stress takes over the participants, because they are very stressful about the challenges they will try to solve. That's why the Student Welfare area is sharing techniques to master stress, Aráuz explained.

Teacher Ada Madrigal said that, from the Center for Multi-ethnic Women's Studies and Information (CEIMM), the entire process of this innovation event is being supported. Since Monday, young people have been in an intense training process.
