“The International Center of Education and Human Development (CINDE) is a non-profit organization, founded in 1977, with three offices in Colombia (Bogota, Medellín and Manizales). We define ourselves as a research and development Center, with our scientific office in Manizales. Our central axis is the creation of an appropriate environment for the integral development of children and youth living in vulnerable conditions in Colombia, Latin America and the world, through the work with families, communities and educational institutions.”
