Abstract
CAICE-ESCUDERO, Jaime. On the 50th Anniversary of DUOC: A Concrete Action to Bridge the Educational and Labor Gaps in Chile. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.1, pp.32-56. Epub Nov 01, 2022. ISSN 1657-8031. https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.6060.
At the end of 2018, 50 years were remembered since the founding of the Departamento Universitario Obrero Campesino -DUOC- at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, an organization that arose from the determined action of three student leaders of the Instituto Pedagógico, students of Philosophy Pedagogy, of that university. DUOC's initial work was in favor of the most disadvantaged students, who wanted to provide them with tools for their personal and professional growth. This action obeyed the University Reform initiated on August 11, 1967 in this organization belonging to the Catholic Church. This institution still exists today, although its initial objective has changed.
