EET AMBASSADORS

The Leadership Certification Program is at the core of HECEET’s effort and serves as a cornerstone for capacity building and training multi-sector EET leaders who are prepared to lead organizations, become effective decision makers and guide transformational change.

Leadership Certification

This program focuses on the formation of EET ambassadors in four specific sectors: Higher Education Institutions, Government, school and high school education and private sector/NGOs, to contribute personally and collectively to the awareness and practice of a culture of ethics, equity and transparency in Paraguay, thus contributing to a more transparent, socially responsible, equitable and inclusive society. This highly competitive program prepares participants to become ambassadors with the skills, motivation and commitment necessary to create new expectations that are rooted in ethics, equity and transparent behavior leading to a more just and efficient society.

“The course has nuances that collaborate in the total permeability of EET, not only in the daily routine of our actions, but also in the constant reinforcement to be carried out in the area of influence in which we are immersed. By giving us the possibility to carry out a project that has the EET values as its main axes, will make it possible to translate from theory to praxis in the short, medium and long term.”

Ariel Jara
Psychologist of the Therapeutic Community "Taller del Maestro"
Ambassador of the 3rd Cohort.

"If each one of us is an agent of change in our family, in our workplace, in our school or university, we can dream of a spring where a child does not have to teach under a tree, where a mother does not die for lack of supplies or where we do not have to resort to raffles to pay for medicines. Today we have the duty and commitment to be agents of change for a more just society... Let us be revolutionaries in integrity and transparency... Let us be leaders and warriors, let us be inspiration."

Vanessa Gutiérrez
PEC Executive Coordinator
Ambassador of the 3rd Cohort
