MUTIS BARRETO, Claudia Aixa  and  OTALORA-BUITRAGO, Adriana. The promotion of rural leadership for peace based on experiential learning. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.21, pp.83-99. ISSN 1900-6586.  https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.313.

The participation of young Lasallian university students in complementary activities, such as those offered by the centers of interest, integrated by members of equine, bovine, canine and sheep-goat clubs, becomes an opportunity to produce leaders who can multiply their action of social transformation in their approaches to the rural sector. In this study, interviews were conducted with leading students of the different clubs, as well as surveys to students participating in events that assemble representatives of the agricultural sector. It is concluded that experiential learning through these centers is a generator of leaders who will contribute to rural development through the establishment of horizontal and inclusive relationships in their professional actions.

Keywords : experiential learning; peace building; political formation; rural development.
