CITIZENSHIP
At present the concept of citizenship is proposed as a condition from which people participate in the definition of their destiny as individuals and as a society. Thus citizenship is assumed and exercised. It is assumed when the person is recognized as a member of a social order and part of the institutions of that order by understanding the values, customs, traditions, norms, forms of communication and interaction of the context in which he lives. It is exercised to participate in the construction, transformation and improvement of such contexts.
Citizens, and especially children and young people, are active social subjects of rights in the process of development with evolutionary capacities that must be respected, protected and potentialized for their performance as current members of an inclusive society, whose work must be oriented to guarantee to each and every one of them the conditions for the enjoyment of the legitimate and full exercise of their fundamental rights.
It is not enough to have civil and political rights that these should constitute the basis for people to be able to exercise their economic, social, cultural, sexual and reproductive rights.
Working within the framework of citizen competencies is to strengthen democracy in the country is to train committed citizens respectful of differences and defenders of the common good.
Citizens with a critical sense capable of analyzing and contributing to collective processes, considering the situation of others, self-confident people who trust others who prefer agreement and the pact to nonviolence and intimidation in order to resolve the conscious conflicts of their role in society, subjects with sexual and reproductive rights capable of creating constructive bonds with others that take into account the interests of the parties and seek to benefit all involved.
