the boys are wonderful
except when they are left over all night just
when the third round and render honors
to an important meeting in general
form notices
fundamentally because they help us
understand and not forget that what
we are is actually the result of what
that we could learn
they remember that sketch of their land
I think it was called the chinita said Greg
where there is a merit that asks the
dad because the chinita and favor the
corresponding to better than the appointment of
favor until the father desperate
law because if curiosity that strange
disease that usually attacks
fundamentally to the children who
asks permanently why
annoy towards the big men that
we know everything and that we forget
that we once asked why a
disease that happily science is
has been charged with learning to control or
with the drug for what they call
attention deficit disorder or with
the formal education system but for
think of daycare centers
in my day the nurseries now
they say kinder the most sophisticated but
some of you surely have
young children or is known by a 112
of the existence of those places
kindergartens kindergarten nurseries
one could ask good so that
we send the children to their places and in
general what one hears as
answer is that for them to learn that to
share
be supportive then the daycare what
that taught us at least to me was
play next to agreements not anton
each one, each one attends his
game and the one that does not and the one that does not
a garment will have an extraordinary and
wonderful way to learn to be
solid Aryan do share this of
learn to attend your game and if not
that is, the education system not only
is ready for us to stop
want to be curious but also to
that he did not train to be supportive but that
yes he has had our own game
it’s true the daycare can happen to a
Argentine illusionist can not pass
but for that we have the school
primary seven years extraordinary where
the kid who does not feel like being
looking at the thickness of his partner
for 80 minutes
what we do is give ritalin for
that does not have deficit disorder
attention and we cure it is it still
continue that pathological gesture the
high school was his thing and if not
University
happily from my point of view that
system is not so effective and note that
we have or there are students who
they manage to find a way to get around
the different gadgets of this
system that they teach us or ask us
why
and it also prepares us to do everything
that has to do with taking care of each other
and they even come to the university with
some traces of curiosity still and
some many but some achieve
overcome the university and maintain that
characteristic
the characteristic of knowing that if it is not
in teams you can not generate large
transformations that the Anton Pirulero
it was not the best we could learn and
we can not stop watching
get together because I want to tell you
tonight what science would be called
a case study
back in 2000 we were students
I was ever younger and were with
a group of colleagues in the faculty of
rosary medical sciences
asking us why if we are
studying to be doctors we did not have
privileged space to learn about
public health
and then how the faculty gave us
really your spaces we decided
build those between students and that
let’s see a free health chair
public with two characteristics a
first characteristic was that we
we define what we wanted to learn
because it was just what I did not
we were learning in the faculty and
the second characteristic that as what
we should learn they could not always
transmit those that were currently
in the faculty
we went to choose us teachers
what we wanted for that free chair
this experience that was thought by
students and supported by students
remained until the year 2000 and in the year
2000 the subject of the free chair was
health environment and sovereignty to understand
public health in 2004 still
I was still a student, I improved a bit
the losing race and with this group of
colleagues with whom we had been in
that time transforming an idea into
a reality as it was both the pound
what some call an unprecedented possible
we asked ourselves if the
possibility that what was
happening around us in these
times of climatic changes in this
time of so many transformations in
other territories were affecting the
health and we wanted to see in what matter
we studied if it was not in any
matter of the faculty and we ask ourselves
if the things we do
health workers
really always help to take care of
health or in some cases can generate
damage
we asked ourselves if we were still in
the epochs like those of hippocrates
remember that he said that medicine is
your food and food is your
medicine say what we eat today not
or get sick or help us take care of ourselves
these questions are giving us around in
head and we were not in the
faculty a space to be able to learn
about this the students
we organized ourselves again and we said
We want to learn from this and this time
it was a free chair it was a subject
elective curricular but elective that
call socio-environmental health what nation
of that moment of encounter between
who shared ideas and
we shared above all the commitment of
want to continue learning from want
keep wondering why to be able to
train us as health workers
with the same characteristic of the
free chair of the 2000 subject
lesson
we define the agenda and we
we choose the teachers and in this case
we had in many cases go and look for them
very far from the faculty because many
of them they had even been
expelled by the university that
for a long time he denied and hid and
persecuted some who thought
different from what the system is
educational
I have prepared for us to learn what
someone needs us to know in order to
make the economic apparatus work
I had determined health matter
socio-environmental from 2004 to now
14 years uninterruptedly dictated to
from the work of students who
They summon teachers from other spaces
so that his voice that resonates in the
university and has been studied for more
of two thousand people among them
students and neighbors because you can
cross though is not studying in the
university another unpublished possible that
born in a space where in 2009
they summon us aissami has received for
that we take charge of the
academic responsibility of what it is
the final practice cycle of the race
that is the last subject of the race
of Medicine
the challenge to find a system of
final evaluation of that final practice
that allowed at the same time
On the one hand, evaluate the students
they wanted to be doctors in their last
exam but meanwhile
also link that student with
the territories and with the peoples that
they allow their career has been paid
so that he can learn the
public university and what you do is
student during the evaluation
let the communities know a little
more respect than what is
happening in terms of health for
be able to exercise their right to fight for
a more dignified life and all this in a
framework in which we could
continue working together among those who
we shared these ideas of a
university really at the service of the
peoples and not the corporations over
governments thinking how to do this
a Sunday morning with as
corresponds to the whole morning having breakfast
today it would be a working breakfast with the
companions with whom we come
building since 2000 that
free
We said how we do it if someone said
between croissants and coffees in one case and
moment since they had and if we leave the
camp is to say if we grab the
students who have to receive headquarters
medical and medical we move
you know a small town no more than
510 thousand inhabitants for a week
with those students the teachers
we go through the town we talk to him with the
neighbors house by house asking what
are the health problems
we go to schools and we control the
guys in the schools to see how
they go in terms of health also those
children a doctor has to learn to
not touch what ever we do less
but we should start to be more
doctors to a mea culpa
just ask and be willing to
listen not only ask since
is not what you know you have to
say if we can make them look
a final evaluation of students and
that our students at the same time
or on that device they will also do
workshops and share some of what they have
learned the university with whom
maybe they did not go to college but
have other things to be able to also
sharing and learning and doing
collective
the answer was because he did not know how
health camps were born
are the final evaluation device that
today he has a medical career
the university of rosario and that that us
has allowed to visit 31 locations
four provinces of this country over
160 thousand people living like this and we have
interviewed with the students to more
of 106 thousand 107 thousand people of those that
they live in those villages this is a 65
a hundred or so for one that you like
the statistics that they can give
finished laps with those camps
we could show that even in
those structures like the faculty non
as known in rosary four
gigantic columns against I felt that there
They are nothing
everyone is wearing starched coats
you can think things that are not so
usual
it was not easy there was a teacher I remember
when they proposed to him he said I’m not going to
accept orgy in this faculty and
students who want us we’re not going
to go to sleep on the floor to be able
receive them in a camp
happily we were able to work all these
issues and when we get to the
villages to health camps are
produce issues that are
extraordinary
an intendant who is now when not
receives because his people have not gone
not even the candidates for governor
in the elections to ask for the vote and
us without asking anything we are like this
a student that excited when
had a camp comes and says I want
thank you because this experience succeeded
which used differently what is the role that
I have to fulfill as a worker of the
health other intendant than when
they listen to the results we get in
the camp and he realizes that the
health problems that have their
neighbors may have to see by the
poisons that are used around your
town
sam to the producers to offer
work together with them to make a
transition towards agroecology or others
what they do is summon us from a
international court as the court
international monsanto link last year
so that before international judges
let’s show the results of this work
are some examples of how it is possible
if we think about it, we plan it
we build and we get them
collectively transform not dreams
in reality but the reality so that it
resembles the one we dream of
this for us has a value
transcendental especially in these
time
voice in which that old antón pirulero
continues to resonate in many of us and
where children or girls
like that of Jean Pierre ask why
we try to pass as quickly for
that they give like of the adults
we continue to vindicate the
right to dream and the right to dream
next to dream that as some poem said
the and Latin American writer you sit in
dream and in mortal matter embody in
each one of us who are willing to
claim the joy of dreams and
the mystique of the unprecedented possible that
they await us all for from
the recovery of the affects of the
recovery of feelings and
from clear principles to get to
transform the reality that hurts us
doing it among all because nothing nothing
great can be done without joy and nothing
large can make one
if we do it together and
collectively we have the possibility of
transform reality and we
humbly in our faculty what
we are trying not for us but
for those who still do not even
can you think of the public university
as a space that they will travel but
who are waiting even without knowing what
we develop these structures
and put them at the service of the
villages
many thanks
