Valladolid, June 28, 2024 — Signing of the collaboration agreement between the MIRAR 4.0 Projectof Fundación Personas and La Caixa Foundation. The signing took place in the Envite building and was attended by Natalia Diez Simancas, head of Social Action Castilla y León of Fundación La Caixa, Raquel Barcenilla, director of Institutional Banking and as hosts, Daniel Clavero, general director of Fundación Personas and its president, Ángeles García.

Throughout its three editions, the project has offered its participants an enriching experience that promotes creative and personal growth, while spreading values of inclusion and coexistence in society.
The initiative stands out for its focus on movement and creativity, inspired by Heraclitus’ proverbial phrase: “EVERYTHING FLOWS, NOTHING REMAINS.”
Project activities include:
– Inclusive flamenco with Jose Galán from Seville
– Cazamaeteoritos with Jose Vicente Casado
