Tegucigalpa, Honduras - July 30, 2024 - Zamorano is pleased to announce the launch of the “Youth in Sciences” program designed to inspire and motivate young hondurans in the exciting field of research and science.
This pioneering initiative seeks to bring seventh, eighth and ninth grade students to high-level educational experiences that allow them to explore various scientific disciplines through hands-on workshops, laboratory visits and interactive activities.
The program, which addresses areas such as biology, chemistry, entomology and animal
reproduction, is structured to not only provide advanced technical knowledge, but also to foster
scientific curiosity and cultivate critical skills such as investigation and problem solving.
“We are planting a seed for the formation of future honduran scientists and researchers, which
is crucial to promote the development of science and knowledge in the country, ensuring a
future of innovation and sustainable progress that will better address the future challenges of
the country's agri-food sector,” said Sergio Rodríguez Royo, Zamorano's president.
The project's goal is to benefit students from various educational centers in the municipality of
San Antonio de Oriente during the year 2024, providing them with access to cutting-edge
resources and skills development. By 2025, it will seek to expand the reach and impact in more
communities.
