\n

T<\/SPAN>he Dominican Republic may choose to include the United Nations model in its academic programs so that students can develop competency in such important areas as conservation, environmental protection and conflict management and solutions. <\/P>
\n

\u201cIt is to be able to guarantee social equality, access to education and other indispensable services to all citizens,\u201d said the Dominican leader at a meeting with the Association of the United Nations of the United States. <\/P>
\n

This possibility was announced by the president of the Association of United Nations from the United States, Ambassador William H. Luers in a meeting with President Leonel Fern\u00e1ndez. He expressed a desire to reach an agreement between the organization and the Dominican government to begin the training process for Dominican teachers in these areas, according to the President\u2019s Office.
\n

President Fern\u00e1ndez explained that his government is committed to the process of transformation necessary for its development.
\n

He stressed that the Dominican government is working to strengthen the democratic system, which he called a challenge, adding that democracy is much more than just holding elections every four years.

President Fern\u00e1ndez said the Dominican Republic has advanced in terms of reform and is moving toward a change in its production model as the country promotes cutting edge technology, develops its agricultural industry and diversifies its tourism offerings.
\n

He said that education is essential for the country to be able to meet its goals.
\n

Following the meeting, President Fern\u00e1ndez met with students and staff of New York University\u00b4s (NYU) School of Business with whom he exchanged ideas about how to take advantage of the university\u00b4s experience in order to improve the academic curriculum of Dominican students in business schools or business sector.
\n

With this goal in mind, the Dominican government reached an agreement with the NYU School of Business, signed by the Engineer Eddy Mart\u00ednez, Director of Export and Investment in the Dominican Republic (CEI-RD) which establishes academic collaboration and exchange between NYU and various Dominican universities.
\n

The Director of the School of Business and other professors praised President Fern\u00e1ndez\u00b4s efforts to improve the quality of education in the Dominican Republic.
\n

President Fern\u00e1ndez was accompanied by his wife, First Lady Margarita Cede\u00f1o de Fern\u00e1ndez, Presidential Minister C\u00e9sar Pina Toribio, Presidential Administrative Minister Luis Manuel Bonetti, Press Director Rafael N\u00fa\u00f1ez and the Director of the Presidential Commission for Millennium Objectives, John Gagain, among others.
