For us, it is of great value to carry out this long-term implementation and we are sure that it can mean a concrete contribution to the educational process of the students and their training in skills to better face their work trajectories.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10251\" src=\"https:\/\/summaedu.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ckaka_firma-convenios2_ENG.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"263\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For the project director of the Luksic Foundation, Jos\u00e9 Guti\u00e9rrez \u201cthis initiative includes the four dimensions with which we approach education projects, and which aim to improve learning, generate greater equity, contribute to improve the school environment to promote learning and integral development of the students, and contribute to making the educational offer of the establishments a concrete contribution to the educational or work trajectory of the graduated students.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10252\" src=\"https:\/\/summaedu.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ckaka_firma-convenios_ENG.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"264\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Chaka project has been designed jointly by SUMMA and the Luksic Foundation, and will involve direct and permanent work for 5 years with the directors, teachers and students of the establishments. This is a pioneering initiative in Latin America, with a methodology of networking within the establishments and also among the 5 high schools that are part of Chaka. During this period, efforts will be made to significantly improve student learning, reduce gaps, and facilitate the acquisition of social-emotional and 21st-century skills by strengthening the capabilities of the teachers. We will also work on the incorporation of cost-effective teaching and learning strategies and pedagogical practices, such as collaborative learning and formative feedback.<\/p>\n<p>Chaka is a project with a total investment of 4 million dollars. This innovative experience will generate valuable evidence, to eventually create a model to be implemented on a Latin American scale.<\/p>\n<p>The educational institutions benefiting from this intervention participate voluntarily and were selected based on their results and vulnerability index, which exceeds 95%. These are the ones: Colegio Miramar, Colegio Leonardo da Vinci, Colegio Tecnol\u00f3gico don Bosco de Arica, Liceo Agr\u00edcola Jos\u00e9 Abelardo N\u00fa\u00f1ez and Liceo Agr\u00edcola Padre Francisco Napolitano.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10253\" src=\"https:\/\/summaedu.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/SUMMA-y-chaka.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"198\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ARICA.
