Weaving a Fabric of Unity shares the story of FUNDAEC (the Foundation for the Application and Teaching of Science), a non-governmental organization found in Cali, Colombia in 1974, and highlights five decades of stories, learning, and insight from key individuals central to shaping its evolution. The book outlines FUNDAEC's unique conceptual and methodological approach, which is focused on the releasing of human potentialities and the integration of theory and practice so that a population may carry out action and research related to its social, economic, and cultural life. Weaving a Fabric of Unity brings the reader on the journey of how the organization created one of Latin America's most innovative curricula in rural development. It shares how FUNDAEC's focus on raising up individuals and communities dedicated to the promotion of community wellbeing supported its efforts to organically scale over the last few decades. The program now reaches hundreds of thousands of students across Colombia, and is being adopted in over a dozen countries to support diverse populations working towards the collective realization of a dignified future.
