The Council of Medellín began the socialization of the draft Agreement 087 on March 15 to make the Zero Registration Program a public policy in the capital of Antioquia.
Councilman Nataly Vélez assured Telemedlín that he is expected to have a project that will benefit students in the future.
During the socialization period, the councilors made debates, changes, and suggestions for improving the project, and said they could unify funds that could be used to provide quality education from the public.
Carlos Chaparro, director of Sapiencia, told the media that “the evaluation of lawmakers is not against what we have raised, but from the perspective of further improving the financial possibilities of higher education institutions.”
Registration Cero is an initiative of the Mayor's Office of Medellín, which deals with the enrollment of more than 24,000 students in the three public HEIs of the municipality (ITM, U Colmayor and I.U.
Zero tuition, with a value close to 20.5 billion pesos, guarantees the permanence of the student and is guaranteed by three measures: Payment of tuition fees, no obstacles for scholarship students and makes the requirement of providing 3 thousand Chromebook computers more flexible.
During the installation of this program last year, President Duque emphasized the achievement of free public higher education and support for the sector.
According to the President, the program born due to the COVID-19 pandemic is the product of teamwork between national governments, public institutions of higher education, governors and mayors, and will allow 695,000 young people from strata 1, 2, and 3 to accompany the country, accounting for 97% of undergraduate students in public higher education institutions.
President Iván Duque announced that in 2022 he will continue to pay attention to educational issues in clear work with HEI and territorial entities, working on the creation of proposals so that the initiative becomes a national policy and endures over time.
With zero registration measures, “the national government expects to benefit about 695 million young people in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd strata of the country.” This accounts for 97% of undergraduate students in public higher education institutions, contributing to reducing education gaps and social equity.
