Why do we educate?

The Gimnasio Moderno, maintaining its spirit of inquiry and constant search for growth has invited various personalities from the national and international sphere, to ask them the simple question: Why do we educate?

A question that seems to be very simple, but the moment the guests begin to answer it, they begin to perceive that the answers are very varied, and that at the same time they lead us to the same path that is what guides us to demarcate the path to follow.

We share with you the responses that writers, intellectuals, educators, researchers, journalists, businessmen and teachers have given us, among others.
