This program promises to “increase the competitiveness and employability of the students”, according to Carlos de la Mota, Vice Minister of the Institute for Dominicans Abroad (INDEX).

A very active community, which fills us with pride”. And he took the opportunity to extend the invitation to participate in this technical-professional training program to all Dominicans currently living in the countries of the concurrences: Slovenia, Serbia, Hungary, Czech Republic.

Faxas emphasized that this important initiative should be extended, through an agenda of concrete programs, oriented to the Embassies, with the Ministries of Culture and Tourism, with whom the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MIREX), has important collaboration agreements.

Faxas said that these courses create opportunities for a better integration of the Dominican diaspora in the countries where they live.
