Various community-led training initiatives are being implemented in Uruguay and El Salvador to foster local entrepreneurship and skill development.

In Salto, Uruguay, the Social Development Directorate is conducting free pizza-making workshops in local neighborhoods. Led by master pizzaiolo Luis Núñez, the program aims to provide vocational tools and create spaces for community exchange. The initiative is a collaborative effort involving the Salto Government, INDA, and the Northern Zonal Board.
