At GECELCA, we know that when there is health, there is wealth. Therefore, our commitment to the communities is nonstop. We develop health brigades with specialists, promotion and prevention strategies, deworming campaigns, oral health campaigns, and infrastructure improvement.
With the support of local hospitals and the municipal secretaries, we carry out an annual health brigade with quality specialized medical care for the population of our areas of influence. The brigades include consultations in general medicine, pediatrics, internal medicine, family medicine, otorhinolaryngology, dermatology, and psychology, as well drug prescriptions.
For GECELCA, transforming possibilities into opportunities, by leading initiatives aimed at the sustainable development of the region, is to build the future. Therefore, from our social management strategy, we promote entrepreneurship through productive projects that improve the quality of life of communities and strengthen their capacity for self-management and generation of progress.
In La Guajira, we support artisanal fishing, agriculture, fruit processing and bakery projects. In Cordoba, we promote agricultural, agribusiness, and recycling enterprises. All this through training, psychosocial support, and the delivery of materials, equipment, and supplies for the productive units.
