Teaching

Education is key in social projection.

Social projection is a concept that refers to those services and activities that are carried out to achieve an improvement in people's lives . The most common use of the notion is linked to the education that is provided so that people have the necessary tools to progress socially and so that the knowledge imparted is useful for the community.

First we must remember that projection is a term with different meanings: it can be the impulse of something, planning or the action that is carried out so that the figure of one object is visible on the figure of another. We can talk about financial projection , orthogonal projection or conical projection , for example. Social , for its part, is an adjective that refers to society (the community of human beings who interact with each other and have a common culture).

What is social projection

It can be understood that social projection is part of the responsibility that an educational institution has with its environment. Educational leaders must understand and judge the impact that the knowledge they transmit has on society.

Social projection is usually associated with the social responsibility of a university. Schools and universities must be managed with transparent and clear criteria since their actions have a direct impact on the configuration of reality .

For an educational center, social projection represents the opportunity to grow together with its students through the development of programs, led by the latter, that help the community, that benefit many families that do not find help through other means and can access thus to a better quality of life . Thanks to the commitment of many universities, ventures are initiated that open the doors to the growth of society, providing access to rare technologies and resources.

Community

Social projection is associated with the responsibility of institutions regarding their interference in the community.

Your goals

Among the objectives of social projection are the following:

  • Promote respect for human beings and other species, with a special focus on the development and evolution of their actions in the different levels that make up their lives, from philosophy to politics. It is important to highlight that respect is the basis of all efforts aimed at the growth of society, since it is linked to compassion and empathy.
  • Work on the training of individuals who stand out for their humanistic qualities, their sense of responsibility and their strength to undertake projects based on ethics that seek to solve the most worrying problems of their community, taking advantage of the tools that arise from scientific research work. .
  • Promote education by understanding the human being as a perfect combination of social, physical, spiritual and emotional being . Social projection is not a business, but rather arises from the acceptance of our nature and for that reason it implies the understanding of all the planes that make up us to take advantage of our capabilities when putting ourselves at the service of our environment.
  • Know the real and current social dynamics , the lifestyles that coexist in the community , their needs and concerns, the different cultures that support it and the initiatives they undertake on their own. To achieve change, it is essential to approach society, ask it what it needs, what its priorities and expectations are, but also have knowledge of its strengths to involve it in the process and to maintain the well-being achieved at the end of the process.
