Desde entonces el Centro de Fortalecimiento de los derechos ind\u00edgenas (CEFO) y el Consejo Regional Ind\u00edgena y Popular de Xpujil (CRIPX) han acompa\u00f1ado este proceso, mediante la instalaci\u00f3n de un equipo de internet saIn\u00a0 2019 the community of July 20- La Mancolona in the state of Campeche, Mexico established\u00a0 a new integration model, which contemplates using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as a key instrument for the development and defense of its territory. Since then, the Center for the Strengthening of Indigenous Rights (CEFO) and the Regional Indigenous and Popular Council of Xpujil (CRIPX) have accompanied their process by installing satellite internet equipment, with the support of the telecommunications company HUGHESNET; a 120 kW photovoltaic system and a series of technical, technological and administrative training. These efforts came to life on May 7, 2022, during the inauguration of the Community Learning Center- La Mancolona (CCA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mancolona CCA has positioned itself as a place of gathering, where several workshops and meetings take place regularly to\u00a0 improve the quality of life of the community. Thus, on July 11, 2022, the first children&#8217;s and youth workshop about substance abuse took place. Which aimed to increase awareness about how illicit substances affect their lives, families, and community. Likewise, a community film night took place on July 17, 2022. Both films were suitable for the whole family. In addition, they encouraged the discussion of relevant issues such as gender equality, children&#8217;s rights, the recovery of the Maya language, and their territory defense. The CCA has also contributed to improving access, use, and appropriation of ICT. Some of the most recent accomplishments are the photographic record of cultural practices such as the consumption of Ztas, the celebration of the seed festival, the marimba, and beekeeping. In the following weeks, we will begin collecting life stories, oral accounts, and interviews for their preservation in CFO&#8217;s digital hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cefoindigena.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/foto-3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7496\"\/><figcaption>1ra jornada de cine comunitaria.
