Education Minister Andrés Navarro announced the signing on 2 November 2018 of a cooperation agreement with the minister of public education in Mexico, Otto Granados, to promote and develop educational television in both countries. The agreement promotes the exchange of educational materials in audiovisual formats as well as the sharing of experiences and knowledge in research, innovation and educational technology to improve the quality of education. Navarro forecast the agreement would have a transcendental impact on Dominican education.
“The most sustainable way for the permanence of change is with the creation of strategic alliances and this that we are doing today with Mexico. This new alliance will allow us to take important steps in the development of educational resources,” said Navarro.
For his part, Granados said that the signing of the cooperation agreement by Mexican Educational Television and the Dominican Republic is a great opportunity “because it is a very robust, very powerful platform that we can, between the ministries of Mexico and Dominican Republic, enrich the contents, launch or promote continuous training programs and training for teachers.” He said the agreement will be taking advantage of new digital technologies and electronic communication for the benefit of education.
