Resumen
El objetivo principal de la investigación se centrará en jóvenes de la zona urbana del Cantón de Desamparados que por los altos niveles de pobreza y el bajo nivel de educación constituyen un grupo social vulnerable, ante esta situación surgió la inquietud de cuál es el rol que una Municipalidad puede generar a través de la atracción de recursos internacionales para generar proyectos e iniciativas que incidan en la vida de las personas jóvenes.
Para esto se propuso crear de un programa de atracción de recursos de cooperación internacional para implementar proyectos, desde la una Unidad de Niñez, Adolescencia y Juventud, que atiendan necesidades de las personas jóvenes en situación de vulnerabilidad en la Municipalidad de Desamparados.
Además se realizó una investigación para detectar principales problemas que enfrentan los jóvenes en el cantón y cuáles son los recursos comunales que tienen acceso para atender esas necesidades.
También se caracterizó al personal de la municipalidad que trabaja el tema de la Cooperación Internacional en la Municipalidad de Desamparados y de esta forma conocer cuáles son habilidades y deficiencias que se tienen.
Finalmente se creó una base de cooperantes con presencia en Costa Rica que han tenido experiencias en la gestión de proyectos de cooperación internacional y trabajan a través de la atracción de recursos para implementar proyectos a nivel nacional y en su mayoría han tenido alguna experiencia de trabajo con los gobiernos locales.
The main objective of the research will focus on young people in the urban area of the Canton of Desamparados that due to the high levels of poverty and the low level of education constitute a vulnerable social group, in this situation the concern arose about the role that a municipality can generate through the attraction of international resources to generate projects and initiatives that affect the lives of young people. To this end, it was proposed to create a program to attract international cooperation resources to implement projects, from the Childhood, Adolescence and Youth Unit, to meet the needs of young people in vulnerable situations in the Municipality of Desamparados. In addition, an investigation was carried out to detect the main problems faced by young people in the canton and what community resources are available to meet these needs. We also characterized the staff of the municipality that works on the issue of International Cooperation in the Municipality of Desamparados and in this way we were able to know what skills and deficiencies they have. Finally, a database was created of cooperants with presence in Costa Rica who have had experience in the management of international cooperation projects and work through the attraction of resources to implement projects at the national level and most of them have had some experience working with local governments.
