AMPLIFY Podcast: The August 22 Aquetza Program Edition
Aquetza - which means "hold your chin up" in the Mesoamerican Nahuatl language - was founded 6 years ago by a group of 蜜桃传媒破解版下载 undergraduate students. Today, Aquetza provides a free, 10-day summer residential program on the Campus of 蜜桃传媒破解版下载 for participating high school students from across Colorado who have strong ties to Chicano/Latino communities. This summer, in July 2018, the program provided 42 Colorado youth participants with an interactive, academic enrichment experience focused on examining the history, literature, health science, and relevant social and political issues surrounding Chicano/Latino communities.
Aquetza is rooted in a philosophy of education that sees the youth participants as holders and producers of new and valuable knowledge, and the program is designed with this at its core. Aquetza provides its high school participants with a chance to develop new skills and grow and share their knowledge as they become leaders in their communities.
