¿Cómo los jóvenes pueden combatir contra la corrupción?

 

🎯 Objetivo del Reto:

La corrupción es una problemática que afecta al desarrollo de los jóvenes. Situaciones del día a día como coimar a autoridades, copiar en exámenes, plagiar proyectos, son algunos ejemplos de como la corrupción se ha normalizado, causando que la integridad de los individuos se vea comprometida. 32% de los ecuatorianos han normalizado este tipo de actos, sin embargo, los jóvenes quieren generar un cambio cultural y hacer la diferencia. Buscamos soluciones tecnológicas/digitales donde las nuevas generaciones sean los mayores impulsadores del cambio ante la corrupción.
