One of the members of the polyclinic support committee, Andrea Francia, recalled with pride how it felt to see her picture in the exhibition. “I felt great joy because I have never been part of an event like that and I felt proud to be in a photo”. Andrea recalls that at the end of the event she told her colleagues: “Look where we are now!”. Once back in her village, she told the residents about her experience and showed them the UPM Foundation 2013 Report containing the polyclinic project. “The residents were delighted that the village was there”, said the committee member. In Montevideo, within the framework of the opening of this exhibition at the Expo Prado 2014, the Manager of the Society of Forestry Producers, Atilio

Ligrone, stressed the importance of working with the communities that form part of the industry throughout our country and emphasised the great growth seen in the forestry sector in recent years in terms of generating employment, investment in technology and the generation of renewable energy through biomass, which today represents more than 20% of the total energy produced in Uruguay. He also highlighted the work carried out by UPM over almost 25 years of carrying out forestry operations in this country.
