What activities have made?
Why we work with universities? In CEDICE, we believe that university students are a major focus within the climate of ideas of a country. For this, we want to instruct to venezuelan youth with liberal thoughts and tools, which lead them to be part of the process of change that our country is experiencing today. Through the education of freedom, CEDICE Young is training tomorrow's thinkers, filling the knowledge needed to build a better future.

Event of the Berlin Wall This event was held in alliance with "Students for Liberty" as part of the Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. This activity was intended to reflect the importance that have the value of liberty in any society. Thus, young people were encouraged to make a false wall in which they wrote their thoughts and perceptions of what is totalitarianism in the Venezuelan today society. This activity was done in four (4) different universities in the Capital Sector:
Central University of Venezuela
Andrés Bello Catholic University
Monte Avila University
Metropolitan University
Course about Ayn Rand at the Andres Bello Catholic University The course about Ayn Rand at UCAB, is a cathedra that consist in the sociology of the company, dictated by Prof. Victor Maldonado. This cathedra is based on the book by Ayn Rand called "Atlas Shrugged", which presents the conflict of two main antagonists or two opposing attitudes towards life: the axis "reason-individualism-capitalism", versus the axis "mysticism-altruism-collectivism."
Thus, this course aims to establish the fundamental differences between these two forms of life, and how this affect or delay the progress of a country. In Venezuela, this is a particularly important issue, because "collectivism" is an axis that is invading our society, provoking severe social, economic and political. In this cathedra, the students are on task to obtain, read and discuss the book of Rand, so we bring 200 copies annual from the "Cristo Sagrado" Editorial of Argentina.
Videoconference with Axel Kaiser at the University of Carabobo This videoconference was held in the Aula Magisterial of the Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences of the Carabobo University, with around 100 young university students, who had the opportunity to hear a presentation by Axel Kaiser, director of the Progress Foundation of Chile.

Cathedra: Introduction to the Austrian School Type of Subject: Optional Course. Professor: Economist, Daniel Lahoud Andrés Bello Catholic University Universities in which is dictates: Central University of Venezuela
The topics in this subject are the appetizer to the analysis findings of this school, who in its beginning proposed a revision to the issue of value and that raised a subjective view of it. His stubborn defense of the values of freedom and market and opposition to totalitarian regimes. On the area of economic theory, the Austrian school proposal has been relatively secluded, thus this subject is intended to complement the thinking of the career of economy, we believe it is an alternative for students who want to expand their knowledge, studying the proposals of the Austrian School economists. We thought of the proposal to establish an elective, because the themes may seem new to the students and is necessary the participation of teacher like a exponent of the agenda, and above all, to guide the literature regarding proposal and suggested the readings for the development of the themes.
Objectives: The topics are directed to make known to the students of the faculty of economics and social proposals made by this school, whose contributions are no commonly developed in the economic theory programs taking place in the universities of Venezuela.
