When an initiative is well done and shows that it is useful for the society around him, he becomes a good practice for whoever organizes, and that serves to become a benchmark. That same applies to the initiative 1 1 book x kilo that the UNED of Dénia launched three years ago with the aim of collecting food for people who are currently experiencing a bad economic and social time.
A week after the fourth edition of this cultural and charitable initiative is held, we learned that there are now two centers of the UNED in the country have adapted the idea to their cities. Talavera de la Reina they held this year for the first time in Calatayud is the second edition to be held.
And all because the UNED Associated Center of Denia presented this initiative as a "Good practice" al System Internal Quality Assurance UNED, in which each center explains an activity that considers it very good to be a reference for other centers. After studying the initiative and its results, the Open University has found that meets as a good practice that should be extended to other centers.
The director of the UNED in Dénia, Raquel MartíHe recalled that this fourth edition will be held on Friday, April 22 the gates of the center of Dénia, in Municipal House of CultureTo commemorate a special World Book Day. In the presentation of the campaign this year, Martí was accompanied by representatives of the four institutions that form the Bureau (Red Cross, Caritas Interparroquial, Salvation Army and stretch out your hand), who will be in charge of distributing the food and hygiene to be collected from its users.
The representatives of the Solidarity Roundtable recalled that the most necessary products are non-perishable foods, baby products and personal hygiene products. After nine years of crisis, their help is essential for the group with needs, which has reached such a moment of despair that, on many occasions, it recognizes having thrown in the towel and not having hopes of a different future. That is why currently the work of the associations focuses on giving moral support and psychological help to families who have dragged too long a precarious situation.
During the presentation of the 2016 edition 1 1 book x kilo was present the councilor of culture of the City of Dénia, Rafa CarrióWho he praised the work of both the UNED as the Bureau in the work of social awareness that perform linking culture through exchange of books.
