FICT reviews the results of technical surveys to strengthen Ayangue's sustainability

Faculty of Geosciences Engineering (FICT) at ESPOL participated in a working meeting to review the initial results of the surveys conducted in the municipality of Ayangue.

During the meeting, the initial findings obtained in the field were analyzed, and aspects were identified that will guide the next stages of analysis and the formulation of technical proposals, in accordance with the community’s priority needs.

The initiative is part of a collaborative partnership between ESPOL, the municipality of Ayangue, the ESPOL Faculty Association (APESPOL), and representatives of retired ESPOL faculty members.
