The group Humanizados, from the Centro de Estudios Generales de la Universidad Nacional [Center for General Studies of Universidad Nacional], Costa Rica, shows how the task of stimulating and raising awareness in regards to the discipline of dance is carried out through art and culture, bringing it closer to the university community, with special emphasis on the students who study at the Centro. This task has been by creating a dance group, a creative space that develops a task of dissemination and extension through various actions since 2012. These actions include the creation of artistic performances, workshops, and lectures. They put students in contact with the art of movement, allowing them to obtain comprehensive training to understand humanism as knowledge and as a way of life; so the students can consider themselves as human beings concerned about their environment and their reality while studying at the Center for General Studies.
