Martial Path

A foundation born from the heart of Medellín's comunas.

A story of purpose

Master Director Jair Díaz Ospina, beginning as a trainer for INDER Medellín, witnessed firsthand the reality facing children and youth in the city's comunas.

He observed that some practitioners had low performance during training, likely due to lack of nutrition and social conflicts.

From this arose the idea of creating a Foundation that could reach these comunas in an integral way.
