Implementation Go in Prisons, Youth Prison in the Guantanamo province, Cuba

The project stems from the assessment of teacher GO Hermes Rodriguez Pons ShoDan. District Chaplain of the Evangelical Pentecostal Church (Assemblies of God) who value what could contribute GO teaching, Christians linked to improving the vision of life goals, behavior, values and human principles and through this effect change in human values internally.

The acceptance of the directors of prisons allow inmates attracting young people interested in GO. The GO as something new draws attention to everything that helps the acceptance of others. Taking advantage of the space and time for the teaching of GO, it is a dialogue on human values and how the GO influences the logical, moral and ethical thought of the person.
