Argentina’s Minister of Human Capital, Sandra Pettovello, has initiated a project to transform the historic Espacio Unzué building in Mar del Plata into a headquarters for the Human Capital Training Center.

The initiative focuses on expanding vocational training models to improve technical competencies and facilitate labor market insertion. The project involves a public-private collaboration where the national government funds the restoration of the 1912 building, while the private sector is expected to manage training programs. 

Following consultations with local business leaders to align curricula with market demands, remodeling work on the facility is reportedly already underway.
