Those that plows able to work with you deprive yourself sectors present low remuneration for not being qualified or to lack of an I title academic that supports them.

8. INSTITUTIONAL PHILOSOPHY • With foundation in the definition of adults (I Decree 3011, art. 2; Law 115 art. 50), the Political Constitution of Colombia (art. 67), the ends of the education (Law 115 art. 5, I decree 3011 art. 3) and the politicians of action of the Foundation, the Center of Educational for the Community Development, CEDC, understood its philosophical thought in front of the educational Phenomenon under four conceptions that are: a popular education guided to the community development, like an alternative for the social transformation, social mission of the UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION CEDC and characteristic of the educator of adults by the light of the philosophy of CEDC.

9. A GUIDED EDUCATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT COMUNITARO The education guided to the development of the community, arises like a radical alternative to the formal systems of the education and qualification, from the perspective of the foundation must mention as general aspects the following ones: We understand for education and qualification an indissoluble relationship among the knowledge and he/she practices it. The reflection on the practice is a source of knowledge and new knowledge are an input for the improved practice. The education and qualification should commit to the resolution of specific problems that you/they affect the life studying daily and the community. The education is a social activity. The educational unit is the group. The educational topic is the social topic. The result that one waits it is the organization and the collective activity. The main objective is the invigoration of the community organization. The center of the Education and qualification is the student (young or adult) like active being in power during the evolutionary processes from the community to which belongs.

10. A GUIDED EDUCATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT COMUNITARO • The education is the means for the full development of this potential and I like to education it is also right natural, as such, all are in the obligation of participating: family, church, state, society and certainly the same student who should get ready for a transforming social function in the perspective of the change and of the progress. • Nevertheless, the growth and personal development is always a part of the goals of the community education. This leaves like a consequence of the participation. The personal growth is manifested through the acquisition of new knowledge and abilities, as well as for the increase in the ability of personal expression, social interaction, self-esteem and car trust. • This education form when having among its high-priority objectives the development of the community, makes the practice of the organization the main analysis object, of the reflection and of transformation with an eye toward establishing a collective leadership and a really democratic participation. And it with some truly pedagogic relationships, centered in the communication, in the horizontality that you/they promote the person's maturity in their entirety and the capacity of analyzing the reality to be involved creatively in her to transform it.

11. THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AS ALTERNATIVE FOR THE SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION • In the context of the Latin American countries it is found that the unequal development of the capitalism has originated structural, economic, social, political, ethnic differences of character, and discrimination. This inequality affects mainly to sectors of scarce resources, denominated excluded, located in rural areas as urban-marginal. • This situation in the international plan also rebounds in the economic, social life and politics of Colombia and he/she unites to the current circumstances that the country lives, (situation of Violence and irrespeto to the minimum human rights), palpable at local level in a problem originated by the lack of certain essential aspects for the development of the life, manifested by the housing lack, high unemployment index, of illiteracy, (which is also expressed in different ways) or low scholarships, little or any instruction technical, high unrest index and infantile mortality. These Facts glimpse the necessity to educate to people like primordial step to overcome this state of poverty and the same conformism that he/she has made career inside her.

12. THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AS ALTERNATIVE FOR THE SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION • The objective of this transformation is to look for the man's performance to establish relationships with the other men based on the mutual respect and the justness, to arrive at an organization level that allows them to generate processes autogestionarios in the search of the solution of its wrought necessities of a development. • The community development is defined then as he/she practices it social by means of which the human resources and materials are mobilized, as product of a grade but high of conscience, in the search of a well-being, expressed under better conditions of life, that is to say, in the satisfaction of the basic human necessities, represented in the health, education, housing, etc." • The community development you can achieve mainly by means of a process that involves change, at an attitude level and generates a bigger level of conscience and commitment in the necessity of participating so much in the planeación, execution and evaluation of actions or spread projects to achieve better levels of well-being.
