Mayaba Educational Park - Zaragoza, Antioquia / ROHO + TAU

+ 22

Text description provided by the architects. Zaragoza is a municipality located in the Bajo Cauca subregion of Antioquia, Colombia. Heavily reliant on gold mining, it has developed into one of the most ethnically and culturally diverse territories in the region. Consequently, in 2015, the Government of Antioquia selected it as one of the "80 educational parks" designed to become spaces for cultural gathering and civic learning. This initiative aims to strengthen and contribute to community learning through small-scale public buildings, fostering processes of local ownership that differ from conventional educational models.
